Former Strikeforce champ Cung Le scores $10K in Zuffa’s latest Twitter bonus

While he may have fought just once under the UFC banner thus far, Cung Le (@CungLe185) scored himself two quarterly Twitter bonuses and a cool $10,000.

Le was awarded $5,000 awards in the “most followers” and “biggest percentage growth in followers” categories during the company’s most-recent quarterly contest.

UFC officials today announced the bonuses.

In 2011, Zuffa officials rolled out the bonus program to all UFC and Strikeforce fighters. UFC president Dana White long has been a supporter of the social-media movement and currently boasts nearly 1.9 million Twitter followers.

Other winners in the “most followers” category included UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva (@SpiderAnderson), UFC heayweight champion Junior Dos Santos (@Junior_Cigano) and heavyweight contender Brendan Schaub (@BrendanSchaub).
