Josh Silveira has big shoes to fill, and he continues to impress time and time again.
At 2022 PFL 4, Silveira made his regular season debut for the promotion after an appearance earlier this year on PFL Challengers Series. There was no easy matchmaking off the bat, as Silveira (9-0) fought 2021 PFL light heavyweight runner-up Marthin Hamlet (9-4) at Overtime Elite Arena in Atlanta.
Silveira, son of American Top Team coach Conan, notched a first-round knockout and six points in the standings as he battered Hamlet with a ridiculous flurry. A head kick put Hamlet on rubber legs and he never was able to recover. Silveira followed up with a barrage of dozens of punches, kicks, and knees – until a blasting knee up the middle sent Hamlet to the canvas on all fours.
