Why didn't Alhassan get POTN of at 228 for finishing his opponent in 43 secs?

Fight of the Night: Irene Aldana vs. Lucie Pudilová
Performance of the Night: Tyron Woodley, and Jéssica Andrade


How did Jessica get a POTN over Alhassan, when Alhassan KO'd his opponent in 43 seconds? At this rate, he could have shot laser beams out his ass and still wouldn't have got the POTN. What does it take? Damn


Don't pull the "her opponent was ranked higher" BS. We've seen countless times the top fighters put on a lesser performance and fighters who are lesser ranked or unranked get the bonus because their performance was better.

Looks like they're changing their criteria from card to card based on convenience now. Alhassan should have gotten the POTN. Any idea why he didn't?

I think you answered yourself.
They change it from card to card based on convenience, so there's really nothing else to it.

Because you answered your own question

[Vulcan]

Geoff Neal had a better KO

 

[FloydMayweatherMMA]

One punch knocking someone out at 115 is a lot rarer than at 170.

But why tho?

 

[Thomas Anders]

It was higher on the card, a higher ranked fight, blah blah blah. The UFC does what the UFC want, deal with it.

Tell me the last time you saw a one punch knockout at WOMENS strawweight. Go ahead. I'll wait.

 

[Willek]

He looks like Woodley a bit

Most of the bonuses go to main and co main.

 

[greenhawk]

Having your name start with Abdul doesn't help tbf.

 

[YouKnowWhat?]

It should be Tyron vs Till. Dana couldn't swallow it, so they gave it to Aldana

 

[Just Creed]

Andrade's ko was more impressive and shocked me.

 

[Me&MrJones]

Wrong.

Yeah Dana got confused.

 

[Mau]

But why tho?

Because you touch yourself at night.

 

[TCE]

But why tho?

Let me just get on the phone to Dana and ask him..I'll be right back.

WMMA SW fighters failing to knockout their opponents with a punch automatically makes it the better performance compared to Alhassan's? That says a lot about the state of WMMA, but it doesn't mean Alhassan's wasn't the better Performance OF THE NIGHT.

 

[Sakuraba7]

Geoff Neal had a better KO

Then why didn't he get the POTN either?

On account of rarity? Sure I'd say it's the better performance since she did it to a highly ranked opponent. And even if it didnt happen Sterling or Zabit would have gotten it because of their crazy Suloev stretch submissions.
