Dana White has ‘oh s*** reaction after announcing performance of the night bonus
Dana White's reaction after announcing UFC performance of the night bonus on Saturday left fans in stitches.
The UFC Fight Night event took place this weekend in Kansas City, and there was a slew of cash bonuses handed out to the victors at the spectacle. And after the fight-fest finished, White reeled off the stats from the night including the attendance, gate revenue, best fight, and what the winners were paid.
White revealed that 16,234 people were in attendance, and the gate for the event amounted to $2.18million (£1.75m). Bill Algeo's scrap with T.J. Brown's was crowned the fight of the night by the UFC boss, while veteran slugger Edson Barboza was given the performance of the night accolade.

And speaking on the financial perk Barboza and the other winners were about to receive, White said in the post-match press conference: "They all win $50,000, congratulations," amid a sea of applause from the audience.
Barboza appeared to be amongst the crowd, and his presence startled White who exclaimed after spotting the 37-year-old: "Oh s*** he's in here, congrats, 50 g's buddy!", causing an eruption of laughter from the spectators.

Barboza picked up the prize after dismantling Billy Quarantillo in the first round with a ruthless knee shot. And as Quarantillo laid on the canvas, the unrelenting Brazilian pummeled his opponent with a flurry of punches to the head before walking away to be crowned winner.
He was awarded the $50k prize along with peers Zak Cummings and Ed Herman, who both retired after the former defeated the latter in their grudge match. But unfortunately, Suffolk-born slugger Arnold Allen wasn't able to maintain his 10-match winning streak and came unstuck against Max Holloway, who won by decision in round five of the spectacle's headliner.
