(Photo by Chris Unger/Zuffa LLC) Sedriques Dumas continued to struggle at UFC Vegas 116 . The Floridian “Reaper” started off his UFC career well enough, winning three of his first five bouts in addition to his Contender Series success.
Unfortunately, it’s been off the rails ever since, as he’s winless in his last four fights . He was stopped in all three of the losses, and the other matchup was a “No Contest” versus Zachary Reese that saw him kicked low so badly he couldn’t pee for several days . Most recently, Dumas was finished quickly by Jackson McVay in “The Moose’s” first Octagon victory (highlights here) at UFC Vegas 116.
Many expected that defeat would be the end of Dumas’ UFC career, but so far, there has been no official announcement. In fact, Dumas went on social media to reveal his solution to the losing streak: he’s going to drop down to Welterweight. “I’m going to 170,” the 6’2” Dumas wrote on his Instagram story.
