    Fotn bettors beware


    Dana White will offer a $100,000 bonus to be split between the two fighters who participate in tonight's Fight of the Night. And for the first time ever, he's letting the fans choose it.

    Starting at 10 pm ET/7 pm PT, fans around the world can vote at www.UFCVote.com via computer, iPhone/iPad or Android phone -- you can change your mind throughout the night, but only your final vote will be counted.

    At the end of the broadcast, votes will be tallied and Dana will announce the winning bout at the Post Fight Press Conference, which can be viewed live at UFCLive.com.

    This pretty much means only main card fights have a chance, and its a popularity contest....I guess my longshot Hazelett/Bocek goes out the window lol.

              ha shit was offline all night so didnt see this...I'd of put a lot more on GSP/Kos being FOTN if Id known this! A lot more people will of watched the GSP fight over any other fight and he was the only realy mainstream big name fighter on the main card, add the fact that it was five rounds means that tht fight was clearly going to get the most votes! Riddle/Pierson should of been FOTN which is probly why Dana wont be allowing the public to vote again!

                Yeah, no sh*t, right?!

                F*cking 5dimes wasn't even listing FOTN props! Bastards probably knew GSP would take it regardless... Bastards!

                  ha definitely was not FOTN

                  I thought doerksen/miller or riddle/pierson should have won.

                    Doerkson/Miller really? I wasn't too impressed with Miller's work rate on the ground.

                      ya definitely, compared to what the night offered. I look for competitive fights with both guys going back in forth, miller/doerksen was a battle as was riddle/pierson. I dont think any other fights on the night qualified for fotn to me. They either ended too quick or were one sided.

                        EASILY was riddle/pierson. Thats who I got on and voted for.

                        Dana said the fans failed, and GSP owed his fellow Canadian Pierson 50k at the press conference.
                        Guess who's stackin' gold and silver? THIS GUY

                          If I had the 100k I would've given it to Alves/Howard. 3 solid rounds of crisp technical Muay Thai with a couple TDs and a lot of close KO opportunities. John Howard has a chin of STEEL.

                            If howard would have done more offensivley i would have been with you on that. But its hard to not give it to pierson/riddle. Even though the fans gave there favorite fighter 100k, Dana said pierson/riddle will be taken care of

                              Although Pierson/Riddle deserved it because of the pace and constant action, it was actually very awkward and embarrassing to watch at times due to Riddle's terrible striking! I thought he was taking the piss at one point when he just ran forward doing rock em sock em straight left straight rights and not landing anything. Literally was a more technical version of Garcia! And the flying knee he attempted

                              Cant knock the dude's heart tho!
