RIO DE JANEIRO – If Viscardi Andrade was looking to make a big first impression in his UFC debut, consider it done. The Brazilian opened up Saturday’s card with a 96-second TKO win against Bristol Marunde, putting together a 1-2 combination to get things started, then kept the pressure on the American until he got the stoppage. The welterweight bout took place today at UFC 163 at Rio de Janeiro’s HSBC Arena. It streamed on Facebook ahead of additional prelims on FX and the pay-per-view main card. The two felt each other out early, jabbing and kicking. But then Andrade put together a perfectly placed left-right combination, with the massive right hand dropping Marunde to his knees. Andrade followed him quickly, and looked to lock up a guillotine choke on the ground. Marunde tried to recover in the ground scramble, and though he briefly got closer to his feet, Andrade dropped him again
