At UFC 309 at Madison Square Garden, Stipe Miocic, perhaps the most accomplished Ultimate Fighting Championship heavyweight of all time, faced John, perhaps the greatest mixed martial artist of all time and the current heavyweight champion. -Fought against Jones. And just like in the old days, Jones won a $50,000 prize for “Performance of the Night” and took home some extra money.
Former lightweight ace Charles Oliveira set a record with his 20th post-fight bonus and earned “Fight of the Night” honors with a solid performance that dominated four out of five rounds. After dominating all four rounds, Oliveira was able to stop Chandler’s late rally in the final frame and could have secured another shot at the 2025 UFC lightweight title fight.
Earlier on the card, Ramiz Brahimaj faced former prospect Mickey Gall, who made quick work of fellow New Yorker Mickey Gall. Brahimaj, a native of the Bronx, eliminated his opponent less than three minutes into the first round, snapping a four-fight losing streak and earning his first bonus in the UFC, the “Performance of the Night” award.
Welch’s fighter, Orban Elliott, also had a great performance in his third fight as a UFC fighter, earning a “Performance of the Night” bonus by knocking out Bashir Hafez in the final round of welterweight.
