John Lineker, Louis Smolka, Tony Ferguson and Lando Vannata each earned $50,000 for their performances at Wednesday’s UFC Fight Night 91 event.

Lineker and Smolka earned “Performance of the Night” bonuses, and Ferguson and Vannata took home “Fight of the Night” honors.

Ferguson (21-3 MMA, 11-1 UFC) and Vannata (8-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) put on a fight for the ages – at least for as long as it lasted. Ferguson was a 7-1 favorite against Vannata, who took the fight on short notice. But it didn’t keep the unbeaten newcomer from getting in there and throwing leather at the streaking lightweight. Eventually, though, Ferguson was able to get a D’Arce choke and forced Vannata to tap in the second.

In the main event, Lineker (28-7 MMA, 9-2 UFC) was all over Michael McDonald (17-4 MMA, 6-3 UFC) early in their bantamweight bout. McDonald, a former interim title challenger, was able to stay in it for a while, stumbling backward, and even landed a few punches of his own. But Lineker kept coming forward and was too powerful. After his first-round knockout, he called for a title shot with champ Dominick Cruz.

In the main card opener, Smolka (11-1 MMA, 5-1 UFC) took out hometown fan favorite Ben Nguyen (14-6 MMA, 2-1 UFC) with a brutal second-round TKO. In fact, Nguyen’s cornermen threw the towel in when referee Herb Dean was letting things go on a little too long for their liking. But the first round was a highly competitive back-and-forth contender for best round of the year. Smolka went after seven submissions, but ultimately it was fists and elbows that ended things.

Korte avond gezien alle knockouts

Ferguson verloor daar bijna van een debutant...

Haha ja. Die Vannata wil ik wel graag vaker in de ring zien.

[LightHeavyWeight]

Ik heb lekker gecashed, ga zo de partijen terugkijken als ik thuis ben.

Geweldig gevecht ja tussen Furguson en Vannata, die liet echt niks aan de jury over. Die jab van furguson was uiteindelijk gewoon te goed. Ook weer mooi om Boetsch te zien winnen.

Betere kaart dan UFC 200

[Klassikl]

Was nog best leuk om te zien, ondanks dat het qua name value 1 van de mindere kaarten van de laatste tijd was.

[LightHeavyWeight]

Het zag er leuk uit maar als je eerlijk bent was die Vannata aan het clownen met zijn handen laag. Feitelijk liet hij zich gewoon slaan en dat is allemaal heel erg leuk om te zien maar zo kom je er niet.

Nou het scheelde niet veel of hij had een win over de #3 uit de divisie. Hij werd ook echt pas veel geraakt toen zijn gastank op was. Aparte en risicovolle stijl. Maar zorgde wel voor een leuke pot.
