Dominated by heavy opponent
Jourdain lost to Jean Silva via KO (punch) at 1:22 of Round 2 at UFC 303 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
The highlight of Jourdain's evening was the fact he walked away with 20 percent of Silva's purse after the latter missed weight by 1.5 pounds on Friday morning. Once the bell rang, he was crushed. Jourdain did manage to land 3-of-7 takedown attempts, but wasn't able to do anything with his positional advantage. On the feet, Jourdain was completely overwhelmed, something we rarely see from him. It was the first career knockout defeat for the Canadian in upwards of 25 professional bouts. The loser of back-to-back fights, Jourdain needs a win his next time out to ensure his roster spot is safe.

Crushing UFC 297 defeat
Jourdain lost to Sean Woodson via split decision (28-29, 29-28, 28-29) at UFC 297 on Saturday in Toronto.
ANALYSIS
Jourdain appeared baffled by the massive length of Woodson for the duration of the fight. Typically an aggressive competitor, Charles was simply unable to consistently get inside and damage his opponent. Perhaps he did enough to win Round 3, but that's about it. It's the second straight fight in which a questionable scorecard was submitted. The fact Jourdain entered as -205 favorite and was competing in his native Canada makes the defeat that much more difficult to stomach. Jourdain falls to 2-3 in his past five bouts.
