UFC Vegas 91 just wrapped up; the event took place at the UFC Apex Facility in Las Vegas, Nevada, last night. The event was headlined by No. 5-ranked flyweight contender Matheus Nicolau and No. 8-ranked Alex Perez.
After a closely contested first round, it was Perez who made the most of this opportunity and knocked out Nicolau. Around the mid-way point of Round 2, Perez had Nicolau trapped against the cage. He knocked him out with an overhand right, and the knockout was reminiscent of Ilia Topuria’s knockout win over Alexander Volkanovski.
In the process, Alex Perez ended his three-fight losing streak. That said, in this piece, we will take a look at how much money the two fighters made. While the official purses have not been revealed as of yet, it is believed that both fighters walked away with at least six figures to their names from UFC Vegas 91.
