UFC 274 delivered on many fronts but Women’s strawweight title bout wasn’t one of them. The 25 minute long bout was at the very least uneventful. After the event, even Dana White said he was dozing off and had no idea ‘who won’. And while Carla Esparza might be able to walk to the isle with her belt as her something new (yes, for real), Rose Namajunas is taking home the fan bonus of the night.
Crpyot.com bonus is a new feature. It was instituted during UFC 272. The top vote getter wins $30,000 worth of bitcoin, with $20,000 for second place, and $10,000 for third.
As luck would have it, the $30,000 went to Namajunas for that lackluster performance many branded the worst title bout in UFC history.
Second spot went to Michael Chandler for his picture perfect knock out of Tony Ferguson.
The (interim?) champion Charles Oliveira secured the third Crypto.com bonus.
Besides these bonuses UFC issued the standard bonuses to Chandler and Fialho for their knock out finishes in addition to awarding FOTN to Royval vs. Schnell. These bonuses are $50,000 each.
Arizona state athletic commission stopped releasing athlete pay in February of this year so any and all information on UFC 274 pay outs you find online will be based on estimates and anonymous sources.
