Taken out by Gillian Robertson
Viana lost to Gillian Robertson via TKO (punches) at 3:12 of Round 2 at UFC 297 on Saturday in Toronto.
ANALYSIS
Although it goes down in the books as a knockout defeat, Viana lost this fight because her grappling didn't hold up. She allowed Robertson to land both of her takedown attempts, good for 6:06 worth of control time in a fight that lasted just over eight minutes. The Brazilian fought off a submission attempt in Round 1 before eventually getting stopped with repeated unanswered blows about midway through Round 2. Now 1-3 in her past four fights, Viana likely needs a win her next time out in order to save her job.

Robertson next up
Viana will compete against Gillian Robertson in a strawweight fight at UFC 297 in Toronto on Jan. 20, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Viana will try to bounce back in 2024. 2023 was a relatively disappointing year for her career-wise. Viana was expected to fight Emily Ducote, but she withdrew not long after her bout was already rescheduled. Viana fought once during the year, finishing with a loss to Iasmin Lucindo.

Inconsistent ways continue
Viana lost to Iasmin Lucindo via submission (arm triangle) at 3:42 of Round 2 at UFC on ESPN 51 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Viana lost this fight about midway through Round 1. She landed a takedown on Lucindo and was in great shape to land some damage from top position, but her inactivity forced referee Chris Tognoni to (correctly) stand the women up, and Viana never threatened again offensively. She gave up a takedown to Lucindo late in the first frame and then again early in Round 2 before tapping out to an arm-triangle choke. Viana is 3-2 in her past five fights, which may not seem like anything to write home about, but is pretty darn good considering she lost three in a row prior to that run.
