Consider John Dodson the big winner from The Ultimate Fighter 14 Finale.

After claiming the "TUF 14" featherweight crown at Saturday's live finale in Las Vegas and earning a $40,000 fight-night bonus, he got some additional money to fill his pockets.

He was one of four fighters earning a $25,000 fan-voted award for a performance during the Spike TV reality show's regular season.

For the first season ever, "TUF 14" offered the winner of the best knockout, best submission and best fight an extra $25,000 in fight money. Voting was conducted at ultimatefighter.com, and nominees were announced earlier this week.

When all the votes were tallied, Team Miller's Dodson earned the best-knockout bonus for his second-round KO of Johnny Bedford in the semifinals. Dodson beat out Diego Brandao, who earned three of the five nominations (he posted three first-round knockouts on the show) but didn't claim the big prize.

Team Miller's Dennis Bermudez earned the best-submission bonus for his first-round guillotine choke of Akira Corassani in the semifinals.

Team Bisping's Louis Gaudinot and Team Miller's Dustin Pague both earned best-fight bonuses for their performance in the quarterfinals. Pague ultimately scored a second-round submission victory in the competitive fight.

UFC officials have not stated if the bonus program will continue with "TUF 15," which kicks off in the spring on FX, the reality show's new home.

John Dodson, Diego Brandao and Dennis Bermudez each earned $40,000 fight-night bonuses for their performances at The Ultimate Fighter 14 Finale on Saturday.

Brandao, in fact, won two of them.

Dodson earned the night's "Knockout of the Night" award, Brandao picked up the "Submission of the Night" bonus, and Brandao and Dennis Bermudez each earned "Fight of the Night" honors.

MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) learned of the bonus winners and award amounts at the post-fight press conference for The Ultimate Fighter 14 Finale.

The Ultimate Fighter 14 Finale took place at The Pearl at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas. The night's main card aired on Spike TV, and the prelims streamed on Facebook.

Dodson won the "TUF 14" featherweight crown with his win, which was set up by a counter left hand that dropped opponent and fellow finalist T.J. Dillashaw. Dodson immediately pounced and forced a TKO stoppage at the 1:54 mark of the round.

Brandao was an obvious choice for a bonus winner following his slick come-from-behind submission victory over fellow "TUF 14" featherweight finalist Dennis Bermudez. Although Brandao had the early edge striking, Bermudez dropped him with a stiff right forearm to the face. As Bermudez went in for the finish, Brandao smoothly transitioned to an armbar that forced a quick tap-out with just nine seconds remaining in the first round.
