Sean Pierson beats the snot out of Matt Riddle in their welterweight slugfest at UFC 124.
Although Georges St. Pierre vs Josh Koscheck won the illustrious "Fight of the Night" honors (thanks to the fans), company President Dana White commented at the post-fight press conference that this was the bout he would have given the award to had it been up to him.
In an unprecedented move, the UFC has announced that they will let the fans decide who wins the coveted "Fight of the Night" bonus at tonight's blockbuster UFC 124 event from Montreal. From the website:
"Dana White will offer a $100,000 bonus to be split between the two fighters who participate in tonight's Fight of the Night. And for the first time ever, he's letting the fans choose it. Starting at 10 pm ET/7 pm PT, fans around the world can vote at www.UFCVote.com via computer, iPhone/iPad or Android phone -- you can change your mind throughout the night, but only your final vote will be counted."
