Submission of the Night was awarded to show-opener John Moraga, who recorded the only submission victory at UFC® 155. The bantamweight wrestler finished Chris Cariaso with a front choke in the third round.

Todd Duffee made a successful return to the Octagon, receiving Knockout of the Night for his first-round stoppage of Phil De Fries. Duffee found his range early, and landed several big shots that sent De Fries crashing to the mat.
