| Daley gets Knock out of the night bonus?
Why does Daley get knock out of the night bonus when he didn't even make weight? They didn't give Rumble his bonus when he didn't make weight so why does Daley get it? At the press conference after Rumbles fight, Dana had said that Rumble "wasn't eligble due to not making weight".

I think that Semtex missed weight by 1 or 2 pounds. The other missed weight by 6 pounds. Big difference.

He took the fight on 10 days notice....
Johnson has a hard time making weight EVERY time.
I would however like to see a catch weight bout with both of them on spike for free!!

The irony that exists in the UFC. Regardless, Daley earned KOTN after that brutual KO.

Dana said no fighter will be penalized, or cut at the 108 post fight, I think it's cause this card was such a mess that there giving everyone a break. Upside to this is Christmas will fight at least one more time in the UFC.

As a fighter, to keep your job, you have 3 must do's every fight: Train, make weight, and win. 1 pound or 10, you still lost. Does it matter if a fighter loses a decisoion 29-28 or 30-26? Nope, still a loss. I'd give his share of the bonus to Dustin and say, next time make weight.

Rumble v. Daley would be badass! Someone would be guaranteed to be KTFO!

The difference between Johnson and Daley, are two things.
1- The UFC wants Johnson to move up in weight.
2- Paul Daley is much cooler then Johnson.
