The first round was highlighted by a pair of low kicks by Petrosyan that resulted in a point deduction, making it difficult to know how the otherwise competitive frame was scored. In the second Ferreira turned to his grappling, putting his head down and driving through a double leg takedown just after the midway point of the round, eventually working to attack an armbar and drawing out the tap.
The compact slugger is now 4-2 in the UFC and 13-2 overall, with each of his victories coming inside the distance. While he might be a little undersized for the 185-pound ranks, Ferreira makes up for his stature with his brute strength, undeniable power, and keen finishing instincts, all of which combine to make “The Hulk” must-see TV each time out.
