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.

Draws Vieira in Brazil
Petrosyan will take on Rodolfo Vieira in a middleweight matchup at UFC Sao Paulo on November 4, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Petrosyan has won three of four fights since officially entering the UFC in 2022, and despite some solid striking performances, all four have ended up going to the judges. Statistically, he'll hold a sizable striking volume advantage, which Vieira will presumably look to negate with his wrestling. Petrosyan has been taken down multiple times in two of his three victories, and sports a takedown defense of 36 percent that leaves much to be desired. Vieira, meanwhile, averages an impressive 3.70 takedowns per 15 minutes of fight time. Petrosyan will also have a hostile crowd to deal with, fighting in his opponent's native Brazil.

Takes decision in Vegas
Petrosyan defeated Christian Leroy Duncan via unanimous decision (30-27, 29-28, 29-28) at UFC on ESPN 47 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
It was a very workmanlike performance from Petrosyan. Entering as a +125 underdog, he kept things simple, as opposed to Duncan, who spent the entire fight throwing flashy, unorthodox shots which had very little chance of landing. The only time Armen found himself in any trouble was midway through Round 3. He got clipped a couple times and appeared to be wobbly, but he simply pushed forward for a takedown, forced Duncan to the man and cruised to the final bell. The 32-year-old Armenian has very quietly picked up victories in three of his first four UFC bouts, with the lone setback coming against highly-regarded middleweight rising star Caio Borralho.

ANALYSIS

ANALYSIS
