Bruno Silva secured his fourth straight victory with TKO against Cody Durden at UFC Fight Night: Lemos vs Jandiroba. The MMA aired live on Saturday, July 20 from UFC Apex in Las Vegas.
The Brazilian flyweight dropped his opponent of Covington, Georgia to the canvas with a big right uppercut, sending the latter’s mouthpiece flying along the way. Silva cemented his win delivering elbows and punches. Referee Chris Tognoni called it a day at 2 minutes and 58 seconds into the second round.
Bruno Silva improved to 14-5-2, 1 NC. In his post-fight interview with Daniel Cormier, the 34-year-old native of Piracicaba, Sao Paulo called out Mexico’s former two-time UFC flyweight champion Brandon Moreno (21-8-2).
33-year-old Cody Durden dropped to 16-6-1 and suffered his second defeat in a row.
“When I see the mouthpiece going away, I was like ‘that’s the time man, that’s the time,” Silva said. “Last time Brandon Moreno was in Brazil, he called my people ‘dog’. So, I will show you who’s the real dog. Where are you Brandon Moreno? I’m waiting for you.”
