Four fighters pocketed an extra $50,000 each in Performance of the Night bonuses after an action-packed UFC Macau in China this Saturday, the company announced. No Fight of the Night checks were handed out.

Zhang Mingyang was one of the highlights of the show, scoring his 11th straight stoppage victory with a brutal first-round knockout over Ozzy Diaz. The Road to the UFC alum is now 2-0 since joining the promotion, collecting bonuses in both appearances.

Shi Ming also impressed in Macau by taking Feng Xiaocan out cold a minute into the third round to become the first Road to UFC strawweight tournament winner. Feng had to be carried out of the cage on a stretcher.

Gabriella Fernandes spoiled the party with an upset victory over Wang Cong in the second round, battling through a rough first round to knock Wang down with a left hand and sink in the rear-naked choke for the shocking finish.

The fourth award went to Muslim Salikhov, who landed a vicious wheel kick to leave Song Kenan out cold in the opening round. The 40-year-old is now 8-4 under the UFC banner with a total of $150,000 won in performance bonuses.
