The Ultimate Fighting Championship awarded four fighters performance bonuses after the UFC 272 pay-per-view card.

It was main eventers Colby Covington and Jorge Masvidal that took home fight of the night honors, with each pocketing an extra $50,000. The five-round bout went the full 25 minutes with "Chaos" never slowing down and always pressuring a very game Masvidal, who badly hurt his opponent in Round 4 yet never capitalized on the moment. Ultimately, Covington took a clear-cut unanimous decision win.

Kevin Holland's welterweight debut is off to a good start as "Trailblazer" took home a performance bonus after defeating Alex Oliveira. Holland went back-and-forth with "Cowboy" over the opening frame, but then went into another gear after Round 2 began. A barrage of vicious elbows ended the night for the Brazilian as Holland improved to 22-7, 1 NC.

Finally, Ukrainian women's flyweight veteran Maryna Moroz picked up a performance bonus for her feel-good victory over Mariya Agapova. Moroz dominated the fight and locked in an arm-triangle choke in Round 2. "The Iron Lady" has now won three straight fights.
