Michel Pereira's newest Octagon outing ended in a stunning knockout loss of 43 seconds.
Kyle Dauus was known as a grip specialist prior to his return to the UFC on Saturday.
The 20-Fight veteran only had one KO/TKO victory on his record before he fought UFC Shanghai.

Kyle Dauaus makes Michel Pereira
Pereira made the serious mistake to jump in the air with his chin at UFC Shanghai.
Kuukaus caught him with a fresh right desk that landed directly on the button.
The favorite of the Brazilian fan seemed to be cold when he threw to the ground like a falling statue.
As soon as Pereira hit the mat, it became clear that he was still conscious when he tried to ward off the follow -up attacks.
Kuukaus rained with cruel elbows where Pereira's head of the octagon floor bounced.
The unconscious middleweight took a few extra shots before referee Marc Goddard entered and waved off the fight after just 43 seconds.
Michel Pereiras losing series
Pereira looked like a legitimate title candidate after compiling an eight-Vecht UFC-win-streak.
Things have not been the same since he was imposed against Anthony Hernandez in October 2024.
'Fluffy' played him five rounds before he forced the TKO finish with less than two minutes on the clock.
It went from bad to worse when he tried to bounce back against Abus Magomedov in April.
Pereira was booed from the arena after a painful version and pre-combat routine.
A third loss in a row means that Pereira can be cut out of the grid in the coming days.
If Dana White decides to keep him, Pereira will fight to save his UFC career later this year.
