Zach Scroggin
USA
Overwhelmed in late-notice debut
Scroggin lost to Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos via TKO (punches) at 1:15 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Agreeing to this fight just days ago following the withdrawal of Nicolas Dalby, Scroggin missed weight by three pounds and barely lasted a minute. He crumbled at the first sign of trouble, which is going to go down as the least surprising development of the night. All seven of the 28-year-old's professional fights prior to this one came on the Missouri regional scene. Scroggin is going to get another fight with the company due to his willingness to "save" this bout, but very, very little should be expected.
