Dustin Poirier led the list of bonuses at UFC Fight Night 120 in Norfolk, Virginia Saturday night. Poirier’s opponent in the main event Anthony Pettis received a $50,000 bonus for their Fight of the Night.
In addition, Matt Brown and Rapahel Assuncao received the other $50,000 bonuses. Brown, in his retirement fight, destroyed Diego Sanchez with an elbow for the KO. Assuncao dropped Matthew Lopez in the third round with a kick to win via KO.
The event from the Ted Constant Convocation Center drew 8,442 fans for a gate of $642,070. It was the highest-attended event for a UFC event in Virginia although it did not draw the largest gate.
Payout Perspective:
Saturday’s event is on par with attendance at other Fight Night events in North America. It was a night of some good fights including the main event featuring Poirier and Pettis in a blood bath.
