Melvin Guillard, Yves Edwards, and Cody McKenzie each earned $30,000 bonuses for their efforts at UFC Fight for the Troops 2 on Saturday night.
Guillard earned the "Knockout of the Night" for his first round destruction of Evan Dunham. Using his superior speed and striking game, along with a much improved ground defense game, Guillard overwhelmed Dunham from the outset. A series of knee-strikes against the cage finished Dunham off.
Edwards and McKenzie took home the night's "Fight of the Night" bonus for their bout on the Facebook.com prelims, which also aired on the night's Spike TV broadcast. Edwards submitted McKenzie in the second after McKenzie had him in trouble throughout the round on the ground. The rear naked choke put McKenzie unconscious, and earned Edwards and extra "Submission of the Night" bonus.
