Fades following fast start
Bunes lost to Joshua Van via TKO (punches) at 4:31 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
It was a tale of two fights for Bunes in his UFC debut. He looked exceedingly sharp in Round 1, seemingly landing at will on the feet, in addition to connecting on a takedown. Yet, it all fell apart at the start of the second frame. The Brazilian's gas tank appeared to disappear in an instant, and he was eventually battered to the point referee Mark Smith was forced to intervene. Already 34 years of age, Bunes has no margin for error moving forward.
