Joaquin Buckley, Antonina Shevchenko and two other fighters left UFC 255 with bonuses in hand.
UFC President Dana White announced at the UFC 255 post-fight press conference that Buckley and Shevchenko were awarded $50,000 Performance of the Night bonuses. Buckley dusted Jordan Wright with a mean second-round KO and Shevchenko pounded out Ariane Lipski for the TKO win.

Additionally, Sasha Palatnikov and Louis Cosce were each given $50,000 for Fight of the Night. It was the opening fight of the entire card and set the right tone. Palatnikov ultimately earned a third-round TKO.
Started the night strong!
