Knocked out Saturday in Atlantic City
Chagas lost to Siyar Bahadurzada via KO (strikes) at 2:40 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Atlantic City.
ANALYSIS
Chagas was hanging around in what was a fairly even fight prior to the stoppage. He did a nice job of controlling Bahadurzada on the mat in Round 1, but a vicious liver kick and and one huge shot from Bahadurzada midway through Round 2 turned Chagas' lights out. The 24-year-old Brazilian entered the UFC undefeated in May 2016, but he has won just once in four fights (1-2, 1NC) with the company.

ANALYSIS
Chagas' UFC career started poorly with a draw followed by a loss and a fractured fibula. However, he landed his first win in June over Jim Wallhead (read-naked choke) and is looking to add to it. In those three outings, "Tarzan" did manage to keep a 100 percent takedown defense. At age 24, he has a 15-2-1 record (1-1-1 UFC) with nine submission wins and has yet to go the distance in his career.
