UFC fighter Dustin Jacoby

UFC fighter Dustin Jacoby is angry at the performance bonus snub, although delivery cards initially appeared on Athlon Sports.

UFC 107 was completely stumbled with the promotion last weekend, and the main event between Erin Blanchfield and Maycee Barber was abandoned due to a last-minute medical emergency in the barber. The rest of the card is doomed to be confused as the clash between Andreas Gustafsson and Trevin Giles was cancelled due to Giles' injury, and after Vieira's failure, women's bantamweight Ketlen Vieira and Macy Chiasson rose to the turn between Feather Weaptor in Feather Weaptor.

One of the few glorious silver linings is when veteran lightweight heavyweight Dustin Jacoby leaves UFC Vegas 107 in his first-round knockout.

However, Jacoby did not receive the $50,000 performance he thought he deserved. The 37-year-old fighter had his rival Bruno Lopes leveled him in less than two minutes, marking the only KO on the card decided and submitted.

Here is the video of the knockout match:

However, when the bonus was announced, Jacoby's name obviously did not.

He wrote in his decision on his X (formerly Twitter) account: "The only knockout that night, no reward?! c'moon Maaaaan!"

Jacoby's frustration is understandable. His victory was the highlight demolition, and his victory recorded Jacoby's streak to two consecutive knockouts.

Performance bonuses were awarded to submit artists Ramiz Brahimaj and Jordan Leavitt. Although Jacob has won three awards in the past, such as his Kennedy Nzechukwu, it’s not worth it this time his virus is worth stopping, even though the card is the only knockout for the card.

Dana White and other UFC executives have made reward decisions, which can be confused by inconsistencies. The CEO corrected his decision in the past, awarding the fighters bonuses after fans felt they were sniffing them.

Even fighter Justin Gaethje pleaded with Jacoby for a prize and posted on his X account “The perfect performance of (Dustin Jacoby) to get this man in the US Century Championship. 50k all day, let’s go!”

Jacoby's knockout round is still the moment of decision for UFC Vegas 107, even if the UFC's reward structure is not reflected. Whether the promotion corrects supervision or Jacoby uses it as fuel for the next fight, it is obvious that he won't keep quiet when he feels disrespectful.
