Can't get on track in Boston
Bochniak lost to Sean Woodson via unanimous decision (26-30, 27-30, 27-30) at UFC Fight Night on Friday in Boston.
ANALYSIS
Fighting is his native Massachusetts wasn't enough to get Bochniak back on track. Limited athletically and relying on grit and determination to be successful, Bochniak landed 1-of-15 takedown attempts. That is not a misprint. He knew he had nothing on the feet for Woodson so he repeatedly tried to get the bout to the mat. It did not work. Bochniak looked surprisingly competent in a unanimous decision loss to rising star Zabit Magomedsharipov in April 2018, but he has regressed considerably since. The 32-year-old has lost three straight and is sporting a 2-5 record in his first seven UFC bouts.

Falls to 2-4 in UFC after Saturday's setback
Bochniak lost to Hakeem Dawodu via split decision (27-30, 29-28, 27-30) at UFC 231 on Saturday in Toronto.
ANALYSIS
No disrespect to Bochniak, but that 29-28 scorecard is about the worst you will ever see. "Crash" gets by on grit and determination and that isn't going to play when you enter the octagon with a world-class athlete such as Dawodu. Now sporting a 2-4 record in his first six UFC bouts, Bochniak is closer to being released than he is to impacting the featherweight title picture.
