UFC Vegas 100 turned out to be an explosive night with knockouts and submissions coming one after another. It felt like the fighters were in a rush to finish the event quickly, especially after the previous event set a record for the longest in the company’s history. With so many standout performances, the big question remains: who walked away with the $50,000 from Dana White after the Neil Magny vs. Carlos Prates fight?
Talking about the bonus winners, the headliner Carlos Prates was one of the fighters who earned $50,000 from Dana White, thanks to his stunning knockout performance. In the first round, Prates found himself in a tough spot but turned the tide by landing more precise strikes on the veteran. He sealed the deal with a knockout less than a minute before the round ended.
It wasn’t just him—Mansur Abdul-Malik also made a statement on the main card. Taking on the seasoned Dusko Todorovic, the American came out swinging from the start, knocking out his opponent in the first round in just 2 minutes. Consequently, his performance earned him a $50k bonus.
It wasn’t just the main card fighters who earned bonuses—two fighters from the prelims also scored solid $50,000 bonuses for their standout performances.

In addition to the main card, two preliminary fights stole the spotlight. Charles Radtke faced Matthew Semelsberger in a welterweight bout, where Radtke landed a knockout in just 51 seconds, securing a bonus. Meanwhile, D’amon Blackshear was the only fighter to earn a POTN for his first-round submission of Cody Stamann via rear-naked choke.
With no close matchups on the card, Fight of the Night bonuses were notably absent. While the event didn’t generate much hype beforehand, it ended up delivering a memorable fight night that fans will remember for a long time.
