  • Alex Pereira has the highest payout at UFC 320 with $3.5 million.
  • Pereira reclaimed the UFC light heavyweight title with a first-round TKO win over Magomed Ankalaev.
  • Four fighters earned an additional $50,000 for the Performance of the Night and Fight of the Night award.

Alex Pereira successfully reclaimed the UFC light heavyweight title against Magomed Ankalaev in their rematch with a first-round TKO finish last Oct. 4 in the main event of UFC 320 inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Pereira immediately closed the distance and landed a solid right-hand punch that rocked the defending champion. Then, it was the beginning of the end as โ€œPoatanโ€ put him down and rained down the heavy elbow strikes until the referee called a stoppage in his favor.

This latest triumph not only allowed Pereira to recapture the coveted belt but also his status as an instant favorite at BetMGMโ€™s sportsbook whenever his UFC odds are available.

Aside from the Brazilian MMA champion, there were other standouts during the event, who not only won their respective fights but also earned an additional $50,000 for the Performance of the Night and Fight of the Night honors.
