$10,000 is a damn shame considering the big boys (UFC) get 50k to 75k for bonuses.



 

85k @115

25k @tuf finale

i personally thought Eric Koch's triangle was slicker than that guilliteen. not only how he threw it on but avoiding the slam or at least getting picked up by hooking the leg was well done.

and canada only demands 40 % of these bonuses plus the fighter purses... good deal

Eric Koch's triangle was a thing of beauty, much more deserving then Grispi's guillotine. Koch delivered devastating elbows prior to cinching things up. I wonder if this wasn't rewarded because it was an under card fight? Both nice submissions but again, this was more deserving in my opinion.
