Fighters.com’s fifth-ranked lightweight “Muscle Shark” Sean Sherk (33-3-1), Tyson Griffin (12-2), “Cigano” Junior dos Santos (7-1), and “King” Spencer Fisher (22-4) each took home  $65,000 bonuses after UFC 90 Saturday night in Rosemont, near Chicago, UFC officials announced after the event.

Sherk and Griffin won Fight of the Night honours for their three round battle that ended in a unanimous decision victory for former champion Sherk.

UFC newcomer Dos Santos’s first-round TKO upset over fourth-ranked heavyweight “Vai Cavalo” Fabricio Werdum (11-4-1) was the Knockout of the Night.

Fisher’s third-round triangle choke of Shannon Gugerty (11-3) earned him the Submission of the Night prize.

The event drew a sellout crowd of 15,359 which set a record $2.8 million gate for the Allstate Arena.

Fighters.com’s Middleweight Champion “Spider” Anderson Silva (23-4) won by TKO at UFC 90 in Chicago Saturday night when “Predator” Patrick Cote’s (13-5) knee popped at 39 seconds of round three.

Top welterweight contender “Pitbull” Thiago Alves (16-3) easily beat fourth-ranked Josh Koscheck (11-3) by unanimous decision. Scores were 30-27 twice and 29-28 once.

Fourth-ranked heavyweight “Vai Cavalo” Fabricio Werdum (11-4-1) was devastated by fellow Brazilian, but virtual unknown “Cigano” Junior dos Santos (7-1) via first-round TKO at 1:21.

Fifth-ranked lightweight “Muscle Shark” Sean Sherk (33-3-1) won a unanimous decision over Tyson Griffin (12-2) by judges’ scores of 29-28 twice and 30-27 once.

The UFC officially added lightweight bouts Friday between “The Bully” Gray Maynard (5-0) and “No Love” Rich Clementi (32-12-1) and between Shannon Gugerty (11-2) and “King” Spencer Fisher (21-4) to the UFC 90 undercard in Rosemont, just outside Chicago, 25 October.

Maynard last fought in April, winning a unanimous decision over “The Answer” Frank Edgar (9-1).

Clementi most recently won a unanimous decision over Terry Etim (10-2) in May, his sixth consecutive victory.

Gugerty won his UFC debut in July with a first-round submission victory over fellow debutant Dale Hartt (5-1).

Fisher most recently faced Jeremy Stephens (13-3) in June, and earned the unanimous decision win.

Three TUF champions highlighted the action in Las Vegas Saturday night: the original, the past, and the future.

The future shines brilliantly for The Ultimate Fighter’s newest blast into the mainstream consciousness, Amir Sadollah (1-0).

In his professional debut, Sadollah tapped “Doberman” CB Dollaway (6-1) in an armbar at 3:02 of round one to win the seventh season of the popular SpikeTV reality show contest.

“Nightmare” Diego Sanchez (19-2), one of the two original Ultimate Fighters, looked physically fitter than ever in his third-round TKO of American Top Team’s Luigi Fioravanti (12-4) at 4:07.

After back-to-back “embarrasing” losses, “Spyder” Kendall Grove (9-5), TUF 3 champion, recaptured past glory in a three-round split decision over former UFC titlist Evan Tanner (32-8).

The likeable young TUF walk-on from Virginia, Sadollah, versus the cocky All-American favorite, Dollaway, was a rematch of an exhibition fight fought on the final episode of last season’s The Ultimate Fighter.

Saturday’s finish was almost a replay of that fight’s end.
