UFC 199 Fighter Bonuses: Michael Bisping Punches His Way to a Belt and a Bonus

Before the 24 fighters competing on the UFC Fight Night 72: Bisping vs. Leites fight card step into the cage on Saturday, they first had to officially weigh-in on Friday in Glasgow.

A middleweight match-up between ninth-ranked Michael Bisping and tenth-ranked Thales Leites headlines the event at The SSE Hydro. A lightweight scrap between Englishman Ross Pearson and American Evan Dunham make up the co-main event.

Long hovering around the top of the 185-pound division, Bisping is looking to the fight with Leites to keep him on his quest for the ever-elusive title shot. While Bisping is struggling to stay in the picture, Leites could leap immediately into the mix for a title shot by adding Bisping's name to a winning streak that is already at eight.
