Lasts 49 seconds at UFC 283
Lazzez lost to Gabriel Bonfim via submission (guillotine choke) at 0:49 of Round 1 at UFC 283 on Saturday in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
ANALYSIS
As we found out this evening, the world of MMA is being taken over by the Bonfim brothers, leaving Lazzez with no chance of pulling the upset here. Lazzez pushed forward for a takedown less than a minute into the bout and left his neck exposed in the process. He was tapping out moments after that. Now 35 years of age, Lazzez has now alternated wins and losses in his first four UFC bouts. The upside here would appear to be exceedingly minimal.

Easily handles opponent change
Lazzez defeated Ange Loosa via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Originally scheduled to face Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos, Lazzez had no issues with his Loosa accepting this fight on less than a weeks' notice after the Brazilian was forced to withdraw. The two men combined to fail on all four of their takedown attempts (two each), but Lazzez was the more active and effective fighter in the stand-up. He finished with a 141-91 edge in total strikes landed, including a 68-48 edge in Round 3 when both men picked up the volume considerably. The 34-year-old has now alternated wins and losses in his first three UFC bouts.

Won't face Zaleski dos Santos
Lazzez won't fight Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos at UFC Vegas 51 on April 16 after Zaleski dos Santos withdrew on Monday due to personal reasons, Guilherme Cruz of MMAFighting.com reports.
ANALYSIS
It's unclear if the UFC will find a replacement opponent to match up with Lazzez for the April 16 event, but he won't face off with Zaleski dos Santos as originally scheduled. If a replacement is found, Lazzez will look to improve his 1-1 record with the promotion after he was last defeated by Warlley Alves in January of 2021.
