LAS VEGAS – It’s been a long time since Bruno Silva fought in home soil.
The last time “Blindado” fought in Brazil was back in 2017, which was four years prior to joining the UFC roster. Silva (13-5-2 MMA, 3-2 UFC) returns to the octagon this Saturday, as he takes on fellow veteran Brad Tavares in co-main event of UFC Fight Night 222. The card takes place at the UFC Apex and streams on ESPN+.
Approaching his sixth UFC fight, Silva is hoping to get booked for a future UFC event in his home country.
