  • Merab Dvalishvili has the highest payout from the UFC 311 card, with $550,000.
  • Islam Makhachev submitted Renato Moicano in the main event of the card.
  • Four fighters received the $50,000 bonus from Dana White.

Brazilian lightweight contender Renato Moicano tried to defy the UFC odds by accepting a day of notice to replace Arman Tsarukyan and face the UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev in the main event of UFC 311 last Saturday evening inside the Intuit Dome in Inglewood.

However, Moicano’s gallant stand wasn’t enough to get him the victory, as Makhachev imposed his dominance to get the first-round submission victory. It was Makhachev’s fourth successive title defense, making him the most decorated 155-pound champion in the promotion’s history.

Elsewhere in the card, Merab Dvalishvili, Umar Nurmagomedov, Jiří Procházka, and Jailton Almeida received the $50,000 for the Fight of the Night and Performance Bonus of the Night.
