UFC 330 bonuses: Ultra-rare Scottish twister leads $100K Philly winners

The UFC handed out four bonuses after Saturday’s card in “The City of Brotherly Love,” including one for an ultra-rare submission.

After UFC 330, four fighters picked up an extra $100,000 for their performances at Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia. Additionally, four fighters got $25,000 extra checks for finishes that weren’t bonus-winners. 

Check out the list of winners below.

Jalin Turner (16-9 MMA, 9-6 UFC) caught Kaue Fernandes (11-3 MMA, 3-2 UFC) right away in their featured fight on the main card, and after a big uppercut put Fernandes on the canvas, Turner finished him quickly in just 39 seconds.

Dustin Stoltzfus (17-8 MMA, 4-7 UFC) was the second biggest underdog of the card, and he pulled off a huge upset against ex-teammate Mansur Abdul-Malik (9-2-1 MMA, 3-2-1 UFC). He overwhelmed him on the feet, then when Abdul-Malik tried to get back his feet after a second-round scramble, Stoltzfus locked in a rear-naked choke to get the tap with 35 seconds left in the round.

Charles Johnson (20-9 MMA, 9-7 UFC) got a tremendous challenge from Eduardo Chapolin (15-3 MMA, 0-1 UFC), given he took the fight on just a few days’ notice. But in the third round, he took advantage of a scramble on the canvas to pull off an ultra-rare Scottish twister – just the fifth twister of any kind in UFC history.

Jeremiah Wells (14-4-1 MMA, 6-2 UFC) lost the first two rounds against massive favorite Myktybek Orolbai (16-3-1 MMA, 5-2 UFC), but drilled him in the third round. When Orolbai shot for a defensive takedown, Wells latched onto a guillotine choke and put him to sleep for the biggest upset of the year so far. 

Esteban Ribovics (16-3 MMA, 5-3 UFC) had no issues with legendary Brazilian striker Edson Barboza (24-15 MMA, 18-15 UFC). With his right shin split open, Barboza took as much damage to the rest of his body as he could before Herb Dean shut it down about 90 seconds into the second round. Barboza announced his retirement after the loss.

Donte Johnson (9-0 MMA, 3-0 UFC) dropped Eric McConico (11-5-1 MMA, 2-3 UFC) with a big left early in the fight. He pounced in a hurry and hit a couple more shots to get the stoppage – including one that accidentally caught Kerry Hatley in the jaw with an elbow as he cocked back.

Lucas Fernando (14-3 MMA, 1-0 UFC) hit Rafael Tobias (14-3 MMA, 0-2 UFC) with a brutal knee to the body in the third round. In classic delayed-response form, Tobias took just a beat before he felt his body shut down to give the debutant a win in his UFC debut. 

Neil Magny (32-14 MMA, 25-13 UFC) showed why he’s going to be a consistent threat at welterweight when he upset Ramiz Brahimaj (13-7 MMA, 5-5 UFC) with a second-round TKO. Magny pinned Brahimaj along the fence and pounded him out for his third win in four fights.
