Loses UFC Vegas 85 opponent
Baghdasaryan is in need of a new opponent for UFC Vegas 85 on Feb. 3 following the withdrawal of William Gomis (undisclosed), Nolan King of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Since it's unclear what type of situation Gomis is dealing with, it's also uncertain whether the UFC will attempt to find a replacement opponent for Baghdasaryan or simply look to re-book this matchup at a later date.

Gets right back in win column
Baghsadaryan defeated Tucker Lutz via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28) at UFC on ESPN 49 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Baghsadaryan is a pure striker with questionable secondary skills. He was able to overwhelm Lutz on the feet the vast majority of this fight, and it resulted in his third victory in four UFC bouts, but Baghsadaryan allowed a Lutz takedown in each round, something that is a significant problem considering he offers virtually nothing himself in terms of grappling or submission offense. Baghsadaryan will likely be fine whenever he is involved in an extended kickboxing match, but every opponent he faces moving forward is going to try to get him out of his comfort zone. It will be on the 31-year-old California native to adjust.

Draws Lutz at UFC Vegas 77
Baghdasaryan is expected to face Tucker Lutz in a featherweight matchup at UFC Vegas 77 on July 15, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Baghdasaryan had previously announced a July 15 return on his personal Twitter account, and now an official UFC site is listing Lutz as his opponent. After starting his UFC run with a pair of victories, Baghdasaryan fell to Josh Culibao via second-round submission in February. There's still a lot to like about him in this matchup, however, as Baghdasaryan sports far superior striking volume and striking accuracy numbers. On the other side, Lutz averages 1.77 takedowns per 15 minutes, while Baghdasaryan has yet to record a successful takedown in the UFC or attempt a submission. He'll have to rely on his 76 percent takedown defense to keep this fight standing.
