Not competitive in UFC debut

McConico lost to Nursulton Ruziboev via TKO (punches) at 0:33 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Seattle.
ANALYSIS
McConico accepted this fight, his UFC debut, about 10 days ago. Ruziboev is a quality opponent, but he appeared overwhelmed by the moment. McConico mostly stood around, landing just six total strikes in the fight. To be fair, Ruziboev was equally ineffective in Round 1, but he opened up at the start of the second frame, and McConico was quickly finished. He'll get another shot with the company, but little should be expected from the 34-year-old Oregon native moving forward.

McConico will take on Nursulton Ruziboev at UFC Seattle on February 22, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
McConico will make his UFC debut against Ruziboev in Seattle. The 6-foot American will head into the fight riding a five-fight win streak across promotions. McConico will have to overcome both height and reach disadvantages against the younger fighter from Uzbekistan. McConico must be wary of Ruziboev's power as both of the American's professional defeats have come via KO/TKO.
