Brunno Ferreira
The Hulk
Brazil
Finds another stoppage win
Ferreira defeated Jackson McVey via submission (armbar) at 3:35 of Round 1 at UFC 318 on Saturday in New Orleans.
ANALYSIS
Originally scheduled to face Ikram Aliskerov (undisclosed) this evening, Ferreira agreed to this opponent change about three weeks ago and handled it without issue. Typically known as a massive power puncher, Brunno has displayed some sweet grappling skills over his last two bouts. He easily forced an overmatched McVey to the mat before getting to mount and nearly ripping his arm off. Ferreira is 4-1 in his past five fights, with all four wins coming via stoppage and three coming in Round 1. He's a threat for bigger fights moving forward at 185 pounds.

Gets right back in win column
Ferreira defeated Armen Petrosyan via submission (armbar) at 4:27 of Round 2 at UFC 313 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Ferreira is known as a one-dimensional power striker with questionable cardio. Just like everyone predicted, he went out here, was the fresher fighter, and won because of his grappling game. He and Petrosyan fought to even terms of the feet for about nine minutes, at which point Brunno pushed forward for a shockingly easy takedown. He was able to adjust and clamp on an armbar that forced Armen to tap immediately. The 32-year-old Brazilian improves to 4-2 in his first half-dozen UFC bouts.
