UFC 301 attendance and bonuses

May 5, 2024 by Jason Cruz Leave a Comment

UFC 301 took place on Saturday night in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. While Alexandre Pantoja successfully defended his flyweight title, it was Jose Aldo’s return to the Octagon that got the fans excited.

Attendance in Rio drew 14,4514 per the post-fight press conference. It was the 40th time for the company in Brazil and the 12th time in Rio.

The Fight of the Night bonuses went to Caio Borralho, Mauricio Ruffy, Michel Pereira and Alessandro Costa. Each received $50,000 bonuses.

The fans were electric for the return of Jose Aldo who looked like he was in his prime in defeating Jonathan Martinez.

@Josh_HokitUFC You’re gonna cry you were cancelled by the left for “free speech”. And then you’ll post 200 times a day on Twitter until fox and friends invites you on to “tell your story”. And after that you’ll run for congress and your campaign will be centered on white grievance.

This is

Real question. Was this announced or is there an intern somewhere that is taking note of ever fighter’s follow and unfollow?

Ian Garry unfollowed PFL fighter Alexei Pergande after a clip resurfaced of him taking down Garry in sparring:

"Ian Garry is lying about me... I'm not sure why he made up a lie [about me filming him without permission]."
