The UFC’s second batch of twitter bonuses have just been paid out: 5 grand per 4 winners per 3 categories every 3 months. Check out this quarter’s list of winners:

Most followers:
Anderson Silva (@SpiderAnderson)
Junior dos Santos (@Junior_Cigano)
Brendan Schaub (@BrendanSchaub)
Cung Le (@CungLe185)

Highest percentage of growth in followers:
Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira (@MinotauroMMA)
Roy Nelson (@RoyNelsonMMA)
Jake Ellenberger (@EllenbergerMMA)
Cung Le (@CungLe185)

Most creative:
Tim Kennedy (@TimKennedyMMA)
Joseph Benavidez (@JoeB135)
Duane Ludwig (@DuaneBangCom)
Pat Barry (@HypeOrDie)

A little clarification on the ‘most followers’ award, it isn’t for who has the most overall but who gained the most followers in the last few months. The percentage of growth award is kinda like ‘Most Followers Lite’ in that it lets the little guys in the league compete.

As for the ‘most creative’ category, I’d say the UFC once again picked the wrong dudes but what do I know? I thought Miguel Torres deserved a twitter award too, but instead they gave him a twitter firing. Pat Barry certainly deserves his five grand, which I hope will go towards more tighty whities and duets with Mirko Crocop. I dunno what Duane Ludwig did to deserve a win but I guess being a generally nice guy on twitter is pretty creative so there we go.
