UFC Abu Dhabi contained a number of large finishes that led to significant injuries for different hunters.
Two version of the night bonuses were awarded on July 26, where the card does not have much competition to choose from.
Muslim Salikhov's knockout from Carlos Leal earned the 41-year-old veteran an extra control when he added a peak to his reel.
Steven Nguyen was the other recipient after his devastating performance against Mohammad Yahya, with a health update announced after his horrible eye injury.
Another of the statement ends at UFC Abu Dhabi saw a 10-Fight UFC veteran record its first knockout or TKO victory in the Octagon.
Amanda Ribas reveals that she needs a second facial surgery after losing Tabatha Ricci in Abu Dhabi
There were high efforts for both Tabatha Ricci and Amanda Ribas who came in their straw weight matchup at the UFC Abu Dhabi Prelims.
Both women needed a Bounce Back victory, which Ricci assured to return to the Win -Kolom after she stopped her momentum by Yan Xiaonan the last time -out.
Ribas stopped in the second round after landing a huge elbow on the face of her opponent who marked the beginning of the end.
There were immediate questions about a potential injury to the Brazilian because of the way in which she responded to the strike before she was stopped with follow -up jerseys.
Ribas has now confirmed that losing her third fight in a row was not the only setback she suffered on Saturday night.
In a statement on social media, the 31-year-old revealed that she needs a different facial operation.
Ribas was previously operated on a broken orbital bone after her loss against Maycee Barber in June 2023, where her team stated (via Marcel Dorff on X) that the bone broke in the same place during her loss against Ricci.
UFC Abu Dhabi only produced a different finish in 12 fights
Although UFC Abu Dhabi was not a disappointing card, there were several matchups that looked like they could produce highlights that eventually became decision winnings.
In addition to the three knockouts that have already been mentioned, there was only one other finish on July 26, which came from the big victory of Bogdan Guskov over Nikita Krylov.
As a result, it was easy to predict who would take home the performance of the Night Bonus Awards, even if both Tabatha Ricci and Guskov could have been in the mix.
