UFC 236’s two amazing featuring fights earned an unprecedented dual Fight Night bonuses.
The event from Atlanta drew 14,297 for a gate of $1,908,721. Instead of Performance and Fight Night Bonuses, the UFC decided to award two FOTN bonuses. Holloway/Poirier drew FOTN for the crowning of the Louisiana native. In what had to be the best fight in years, Israel Adesanya defeated Kelvin Gastelum. All four earned $50,000 bonuses.
Payout Perspective:
The main event and the co-main events were the two best championship fights this year. The fight ensures two larger fights in the future. First, Adesanya will face Robert Whittaker in a fight that should take place in Australia or New Zealand. Next, Dustin Poirier takes on Khabib Nurmogomedov for the lightweight title later this year.
