- Max Holloway received the highest payout from the UFC 318 card with $1.54 million.
- Holloway defeated Poirier in the main event of the card to defend his BMF title.
- Five fighters received the additional $50,000 bonus for the Fight of the Night and Performance of the Night.
Max Holloway successfully fended off the challenge of Dustin Poirier in the main event of the UFC 318 PPV card last July 19 at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans to retain his BMF title and spoil the party in front of Poirier’s home crowd.
It was an exciting back-and-forth action, but Holloway’s superior boxing and volume overwhelmed “The Diamond” throughout the five-round war. This latest performance by “Blessed” proved why he’s a top choice on the UFC odds board and a true BMF.
This also earned Holloway the biggest payout from the event with $1.54 million, while five fighters – Marvin Vettori, Brendan Allen, Ateba Gautier, Islam Dulatov, and Carli Judice secured the additional $50,000 bonus for the Fight of the Night and the Performance of the Night bonuses.
