“Bam Bam” is hurting.

Fan-favorite Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Heavyweight veteran Tai Tuivasa suffered another setback at UFC Perth yesterday (Sat., May 2, 2026), dropping a unanimous decision to short-notice opponent Louie Sutherland inside RAC Arena in Perth, Western Australia.

The defeat marked Tuivasa’s seventh straight loss — extending the longest losing streak in UFC Heavyweight history — and pushing his winless stretch to nearly four years.

After the fight, Tuivasa took to Instagram with a raw, emotional message.

“SORRY. I tried I felt good I put in the work didn’t get result. I feel like a shit cunt let my fans down again. Back to the drawing board for me. Cunt of a sport.

BUT I WILL NEVER GIVE UP IM FROM WESTERNSYDNEY YOU GOTTA PUT ME OUT FOR ME TO GIVE UP.

Sorry all my loyal fans I really am and to my team love yahs”

Tuivasa (14-10) has now lost twice in the span of three months after returning from an 18-month layoff, and the seven-fight skid has only intensified the pressure surrounding his future.

Heading into the bout, Tuivasa admitted his “ass was on the line,” making the aftermath even more uncertain. With fans — or outright release — the promotion now faces a tough decision regarding one of its most popular brawlers.
