Meunier lost to Colby Covington via submission (rear-naked choke) at 4:06 of Round 3 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Ottawa.
ANALYSIS
It's safe to say that Meunier's UFC debut didn't go as well as he hoped. Overwhelmed from the opening bell, Meunier was unable to stop the advances of Covington, who was able to takedown the debuting Canadian with ease. Meunier has a nice frame for the welterweight division, but he was on his back so much in this fight that we didn't get to see what he can do on the feet. Fighters who are willing to make their company debut on short notice almost get a second chance with the UFC, so expect to see Meunier again even though he was dominated on Saturday.
