UFC on Fuel 2 Results: What We Learned from Siyar Bahadurzada vs. Paulo Thiago

Siyar Bahadurzada came into his UFC debut with a lot of hype as an exciting fighter, and he showcased his impressive striking early against Paulo Thiago.

Thiago came rushing in with a big combination, and Bahadurzada countered with a beautiful right hand that left his opponent laying face down on the mat.

Looks like we’ve got a front runner for Knockout of the Night honors.

What We’ll Remember About This Fight:

There’s not much to remember, other than the insane power that Bahadurzada possesses.

In what was basically the first flurry of punches in the fight, Bahadurzada showed off his power and ended the fight in just 42 seconds.

What We Learned About Siyar Bahadurzada

We didn’t get much of a chance to see him fight, but you can’t argue with results.

Bahadurzada got the win and showed he has the ability to end any fight in an instant.

What We Learned About Paulo Thiago

You can’t take too much away from Paulo Thiago for this one.

Thiago usually gives the fans a show and puts on a good fight, but he didn’t have a chance to do that today.

Thiago got caught, it happens, and he won’t lose too much ground in the division after that.

What’s Next For Siyar Bahadurzada

His original UFC debut was supposed to be at UFC 142 against Erick Silva.

While Silva has a fight with Charlie Brenneman coming up, I’d like to see him fight Bahadurzada next regardless of the outcome.

What’s Next For Paulo Thiago

Thiago needs to stay active, and the loser of the UFC on Fuel 3 fight between Amir Sadollah and Jorge Lopez would be a good matchup for the Brazilian.
