Quickly finished by Tyson Pedro
Hunsucker lost to Tyson Pedro via TKO (punches) at 1:05 of Round 1 at UFC 278 on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Hunsucker could have very well needed this victory to save his roster spot after back-to-back first-round knockouts to start his UFC run, and it couldn't have gone much worse. He only landed two significant strikes before getting stunned by a jab, and a well-placed body kick by Pedro sent him to the mat. Hunsucker covered up and Pedro only needed a few follow-up shots to close the show. Hunsucker started his career at heavyweight, but the move down to 205 pounds didn't appear to do him much good. At 33 years old, time isn't on his side to start a new winning streak and get back on track.

Handed medical suspension
Hunsucker was handed a six-month medical suspension Tuesday due to a knee injury, MMAFighting.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Hunsucker failed to last two minutes against Justin Tafa before getting knocked out. He may have also suffered a serious injury in the process. If an MRI on his left knee is positive, he'll be unable to fight until June 17 unless cleared by a doctor.

Obliterated by Justin Tafa
Hunsucker lost to Justin Tafa via TKO (head kick) at 1:53 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
It was another disastrous effort from Hunsucker. The 32-year-old Kentucky native has now made two appearances with the UFC, in addition to a bout on Dana White's Contender Series. Hunsucker has suffered first-round knockout defeats in each of the fights and the odds are strongly against him getting a third official opportunity with the company. On a more positive note, he did pick up a percentage of Tafa's purse after the latter missed weight by a pound on Friday morning. Small victories.

ANALYSIS
Hunsucker will receive a portion of Tafa's purse after the latter weighed in one point above the heavyweight limit Friday. Hunsucker enters Saturday's matchup as an underdog in spite of Tafa's missed weight.
