LAS VEGAS – For Natalia Silva , it doesn’t matter who she fights next, as there’s only one thing she has her eyes on: The UFC championship belt. The Brazilian women’s flyweight continued her impressive streak Saturday and improved her run to 11-0 since her most recent defeat, which dates back to 2017. Silva (18-5-1 MMA, 6-0 UFC) defeated longtime UFC fighter Viviane Araujo (12-7 MMA, 6-6 UFC) with a unanimous decision on the main card of UFC Fight Night 235 . Although she was in a prime position to make a callout, Silva wanted to part in asking for a name and said she’s only focused on the title. “I don’t know about the next opponent because all the time I’ve said I’m here to be the champion,” Silva said at the UFC Fight Night 235 post-fight press conference. “I’m working for this, and I’m here to fight whoever the UFC gives.
