Four fighters earned an extra $50,000 for their efforts on Friday night in Atlantic City, as the UFC handed out bonuses in that amount to Cub Swanson, Dan Miller, Sam Stout, and Spencer Fisher.

Swanson took home the "Knockout of the Night" for his second round finish of Ross Pearson. The fight arguably should have been the "Fight of the Night" as well, as it was a fantastic fight between two evenly matched fighters, with both doing damage back and forth and landing several big strikes on one another. Swanson finally finished it with two rights and a follow up left hook late in the second round, sending Pearson down against the cage.

The actual "Fight of the Night" bonus went to Stout and Fisher for their three round trilogy bout. Stout earned his second win over Fisher, taking a unanimous decision in what appeared to be a much closer fight than the 30-27 scores suggested.

Finally, Miller took the night's "Submission of the Night" in his welterweight debut. He latched on a guillotine choke over Ricardo Funch in the third round of their bout, avoiding a potential decision loss and halting a two-fight losing streak.
