Debut ends in brutality
Striegl lost to Said Numagomedov via KO (punches) at 0:51 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Abu Dhabi.
ANALYSIS
Striegl came into the organization as a pressure-striking wrestler but didn't get much of a chance to show off his skills, as he ate a clean left hook on the way in that put him off his senses. It was academic from there, as Nurmagomedov never let up, getting top position and finishing with vicious ground-and pound. Striegl's basic skill set could yield results in the UFC, but he's going to have to do something about his defense, which has presented problems for him in the past. He falls to 18-3 in professional MMA as a result of the loss.
