The UFC handed out four bonuses after Saturday’s card, including one for a vicious head kick finish.

After UFC 313, four fighters picked up an extra $50,000 for their performances in Las Vegas. Check out the winners below.

Performance of the Night: Mauricio Ruffy

Mauricio Ruffy def. King Green via knockout (spinning wheel kick) – Round 1, 2:07Mauricio Ruffy (12-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC) landed one of the most insane head-kick knockouts in UFC history when he finished striking standout King Green (32-17-1 MMA, 13-12-1 UFC) in the first round. Ruffy’s spinning wheel kick was right on the money and drilled Green in the temple to put him out cold.

Performance of the Night: Ignacio Bahamondes

Ignacio Bahamondes def. Jalin Turner via submission (triangle choke) – Round 1, 2:29Ignacio Bahamondes (17-5 MMA, 6-2 UFC) picked up what arguably is the biggest win of his career so far when he submitted Jalin Turner (14-9 MMA, 7-6 UFC) midway through the first round with a triangle choke. After he made Turner regret taking him down, Bahamondes, who trains with UFC welterweight champion Belal Muhammad, had his sixth win in seven fights and third straight finish.

Fight of the Night: Rafael Fiziev vs. Justin Gaethje

Justin Gaethje def. Rafael Fiziev via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28)Just like in their first fight, it took Justin Gaethje (26-5 MMA, 9-5 UFC) just a little bit to get warmed up against Rafael Fiziev (12-4 MMA, 6-4 UFC). But he came on late once again and held off the slight favorite for a unanimous decision and his utterly ridiculous 14th post-fight bonus in 14 UFC fights. Only twice, has he left the UFC cage without a bonus – but two other times, he’s picked up the ultra-rare double bonus to make up for it.
