The highly anticipated UFC 300 event is set to take place in Las Vegas this Saturday, promising an unforgettable night of fights and unprecedented bonuses. In a surprising move, the UFC has announced that fighters will have the chance to earn a staggering $300,000 in bonuses, a significant increase from the usual $50,000 ‘fight of the night’ or ‘performance of the night’ rewards.
This one-time change comes after a petition by Max Holloway and Justin Gaethje, two prominent fighters in the UFC. Their request for higher bonuses was met with approval by UFC president Dana White, who recognized their contributions to the sport.
Adding to the excitement of the event, UFC legend Mark Coleman will be in attendance to present the BMF (Baddest Mother F*cker) title to the winner of the Gaethje-Holloway lightweight bout.

His presence at UFC 300 adds a special touch to the already momentous occasion.
The BMF title, introduced in 2019, is awarded to the toughest and most dominant fighter in the UFC. It has only been contested twice since its inception, making this upcoming bout all the more significant.
