Not competitive in UFC debut Saturday
Mokhtarian dropped his UFC debut to John Moraga on Saturday, falling via unanimous decision (25-30, 27-30, 27-30) at UFC Fight Night 110 in Auckland, New Zealand.
ANALYSIS
You don't want to kick a guy when he is down, but that was about as poor of an effort as you will ever see from someone in their company debut. Mokhtarian was dominated from the second the opening bell rang. He was was half a step slow in the striking game and spent more than half of the fight being controlled by Moraga on the mat. Mokhtarian will get another opportunity with the company, but fans shouldn't expect much better than what we saw on Saturday.
