Given ranked flyweight

Takes short-notice fight
Van is scheduled to compete against Lucas Rocha in a flyweight fight at UFC Vegas 90 on April 6, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
Rocha was initially expected to compete against Jose Johnson (undisclosed) before his withdrawal from UFC Vegas 90. So instead, Van will be the flyweight to welcome Rocha into the promotion.

Remains perfect in UFC
Van defeated Felipe Bunes via TKO (punches) at 4:31 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
This was the third UFC bout for Van and the third fight in which he started very slowly before picking up the pace. His prior two bouts ended with decision victories, but the 22-year-old was able to earn the stoppage over Bunes after countless unanswered strikes found the target in the latter stages of Round 2. Van obviously has some talent, and his youth makes him an obvious fighter to keep an eye on moving forward in a thin flyweight division, but these slow starts are going to eventually come back to haunt him.
