More Fantasy News
Ferreira up next
Petrosyan will fight Brunno Ferreira at UFC 313 on March 8, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
A loss to Shara Magomedov in October ensured that Petrosyan would finish 0-2 in 2024, but turning things around isn't impossible against Ferreira, who is five inches shorter than Petrosyan and is also coming off a loss.

Finished by Shara Magomedov
Petrosyan lost to Shara Magomedov via TKO (spinning back fists) at 4:52 of Round 2 at UFC 308 on Saturday in Abu Dhabi.
ANALYSIS
In a battle of two stand-up specialists, Petrosyan's best moments came early in the fight. He damaged Magomedov moments after the opening bell rang but wasn't able to follow up with any significant blows. He remained competitive the rest of the way, but was never able to find that level of success once again. He was eventually dropped with a pair of spinning back fists with just seconds to go in Round 2. Magomedov walked away and Petrosyan likely would have been able to continue if he attempted to get back up, but he put his head down and referee Kerry Hatley stepped in. Set to turn 34 years of age in early-November, Armen is now 3-3 in his first half-dozen UFC bouts.

Undefeated prospect next
Petrosyan is scheduled to compete against fellow middleweight Shara Magomedov at UFC 308 in Abu Dhabi on Oct. 26, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
Petrosyan is looking to bounce back after getting submitted by Rodolfo Vieira. However, the former's next fight is daunting, facing an undefeated process looking for his third win in five months.

Grounded by Rodolfo Vieira
Petrosyan lost to Rodolfo Vieira via submission (arm-triangle choke) at 4:48 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
The largest and most serious concern for Petrosyan in this fight was that his quality striking skills would be completely and thoroughly negated by the submission game of Vieira. That ended up being exactly the case. Rodolfo isn't a known wrestler, but he still connected on all three of his takedown attempts. Armen looked confused and overwhelmed with Vieira on top of him, which will happen to a lot of guys. The 33-year-old Armenian has shown more good than bad during his time with the UFC, although consistency has been an issue. He's 3-2 in his first five bouts with the company.

Vieira fight now in Vegas
Petrosyan will compete against Rodolfo Vieira in a middleweight fight at the UFC's Feb. 10 event in Las Vegas, according to Guilherme Cruz of MMAFighting.com.
ANALYSIS
Petrosyan and Vieira got their fight re-scheduled to a Vegas card nearly three months down the line. This bodes much better for the former, who will no longer have to deal with a home-country disadvantage.
