UFC 298 just went down and it was a phenomenal card. The MMA world got to see several upsets and entertaining fights. The main event featured two featherweight titans going at it to secure the divisional title. In the co-main event, middleweight fighters, Robert Whittaker and Paulo Costa gave a good showing of one another and entertained us fans.

The rest of the card was equally as eventful, if not more. However, with so many great performances,  one would be curious to know to whom would Dana White hand out the post-fight rewards. Well, wait no further and let’s find it out.

The rewards of UFC 298 granted by Dana White

The fight of the night goes to none other than Amanda Lemos and Mackenzie Dern. The two ladies put on a hell of a performance of constant back and forth and neither of them took a step back. Although Lemos won the bout, Dern gave a good showing of herself and her will to compete. 

There were finishes on the card but the only three managed to win performance bonuses. One of them is the new featherweight champion of the world, Ilia Topuria who was knocked out by Alexander Volkanovski in the second round. This is one of the biggest upsets of the card if not the big biggest. Needless to say, the Spanish fighter deserves this acclaim, and would be exciting to see him compete going forward as a champion.
