Not only did Anthony Perosh rebound from his seven second, knockout loss to Ryan Jimmo in triumphant style tonight at UFC 163, but the light-heavyweight picked up an extra $50,000 for his performance.

Perosh floored fellow BJJ black belt Vinny Magalhaes with a right hand just seconds into their tilt, and finished off the renowned grappler with follow up punches in just 14 seconds. As a result, the Australian fighter picked “Knockout of the Night” for the highlight reel win.

“Fight of the Night” went to flyweights Ian McCall and Iliarde Santos for their entertaining, back-and-forth bout, which saw McCall pick up the unanimous decision win.

“Submission of the Night” and an extra 50K went to welterweight Sergio Moraes, for his beautifully executed, triangle-choke finish of Neil Magny.

UFC 163 was hosted by the HSBC Arena in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
