Takanori Gomi’s 64-second knockout of Tyson Griffin earned him $120,000, according to figures released by the California State Athletic Commission on Thursday. Included in that total, the former Pride Fighting Championships lightweight champion also earned the promotion’s $40,000 “Knockout of the Night” bonus for his first win in the Octagon. Xtreme Couture’s Griffin, notching his second defeat in less than two months, made $30,000.
