UFC Fight Night Wichita Live Gate, Attendance & Bonuses

UFC Fight Night Wichita is in the books and the main event of the show saw former UFC Heavyweight Champion Junior Dos Santos defeat Derrick Lewis by second round TKO.

The show, which was the first in the state of Kansas, brought in a total attendance of 7,265 fans and that equaled a gate of $636,417,26 according to MMA Junkie.

A total of three bonuses were handed out to four of the twenty six fighters who competed on the card, with those bonuses going to Dos Santos, Lewis, Beneil Dariush (who fought and defeated Drew Dober) and Niko Price (who fought and defeated Tim Means) according to MMA Junkie.

Dos Santos and Lewis would take home $50,000 each for Fight Of The Night, while Price and Dariush took home $50,000 each for Performances Of The Night. That means that a total of $200,000 was handed out in bonuses, which is standard fare for any UFC card.

Up next for the UFC is UFC Fight Night London, which streams live on ESPN+ and it will also feature a main event of Darren Till versus Jorge Masvidal. A total of thirteen fights and twenty six competitors are in action on the card, meaning there is going to be plenty of chances for more $50,000 checks to get handed out.
