UFC 181 Bonuses: Anthony Pettis, Josh Samman, two others earn an extra $50,000

The Pettis brothers are coming home with an extra $100,000 as both Sergio and Anthony Pettis picked up bonuses for their wins at UFC 181. Anthony became the first man to submit Gilbert Melendez, as he choked him out with a guillotine to successfully defend his UFC lightweight title. His brother Sergio on the other hand, took on Matt Hobar and both men put on a Fight of the Night performance as they went to an entertaining decision that both got them some extra cash.
