I agree with the other bonuses for sure. That Foster/Story fight was a slugfest in the first, and that arm triangle from inside the full guard was astounding. I have never seen anything like it, Story is a monster. They both took some really good shots, too.

I don't mind Vitor getting KO, though Kos's was good, too.

The UFC handed out their traditional “Fight of the Night,” “Submission of the Night,” and “Knockout of the Night,” awards following the conclusion of UFC 103 to the tune of $65,00 each.

Relative UFC newcomer Rick Story came out the big winner for the night, not only in the win column but in the pocketbook.

Story was awarded “Submission of the Night” for his arm triangle on Brian Foster, and also received “Fight of the Night” honors along with Foster.

Vitor Belfort took home “Knockout of the Night” for his first round knockout victory over Rich Franklin.
Try to remember to C/P the article...

I think KOotN should've went to Efrian, but I can see it going to Vitor too. Awesome night of fights :D

I think Vitor KOing Rich got KOotN because their bigger names, plain and simple. I thought Tyson KOing Hermes would be KO of the night for sure. Hermes finally got put to sleep... sad night...

Definitely a great card tonite when you think of all the guys who could have gotten KOotn.


Vitor deserved that bonus though, that KO was vicious. Temple shot, chin shot, then bounce Franklin's head off the mat. Plus it was Vitor's first offensive basically and it was dead-on and powerful. Koscheck's was good but a little more wild, the lightweight one was good but almost seemed like an accident.

Welcome home Belfort. Sad to think we might have seen two good fighters fade tonite, RIP Franklin and Crocop's careers :(

Yah Vitor was patient and you could just see when he was ready to strike. Him vs Hendo, Wand and definitely against A. Silva would be very very interesting.

I guess Belfort could have won KO of the night but I actually wanted Koscheck to win it :)

Did anyone see his face when he threw that overhand right that knocked Trigg down? Priceless :)

I probably would have given KOTN to Griffin; but as previously mentioned I suspect Vitor being a bigger 'name' had something to do with it.

I disagree with some saying Kos should have got it. He won by TKO; Trigg was never 'out'. In fact Trigg stood up after the fight was stoppped and complained to the referee. That's not a KOTN imo.

The only thing Rich and Hermes said after their fight was "what happened?".
