TAMPA, Fla. – Felipe Silva moved to 2-0 at featherweight in just a few months after his win at UFC on ESPN 63. But the 145-pound division probably doesn’t have a new prospect on its hands. Instead, after his win over Miles Johns (15-3 MMA, 6-3 UFC) on Saturday at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Fla., Silva (14-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC) said his plan is to move back to bantamweight – where he wants to win a title. “I want to take my time, of course,” Silva said at his post-fight news conference.

BAD MMA News — Sat, 19 May 2018 23:45:54 +0000

Felipe Silva (8-2 MMA, 1-2 UFC) battered and bruised a seemingly outmatched Claudio Puelles (8-2 MMA, 1-1 UFC) for the better part of three rounds. Then he tapped out. The lightweight bout opened up the preliminary card of today’s UFC Fight Night 129 event at Movistar Arena in Santiago, Chile. It streamed on UFC Fight Pass ahead of additional prelims on FS2 and a main card on FS1. Silva was the busier man to open, looking to strike from range and finding some immediate success. However, a patient Puelles was able to push inside and drag the action to the floor, where he pulled away from a few triangle choke attempts while delivering a handful of strikes from the dominant position.
