Drops decision in UFC 294 opener
Silva lost to Sharaputdin Magomedov via unanimous decision (27-30, 27-30, 27-30) at UFC 294 on Saturday in Abu Dhabi.
ANALYSIS
Silva had a tough go of it, particularly on the feet, but fought better than the final scorecards would lead you to believe. Bruno, known for his striking and power, was battered by Magomedov whenever the two were upright. This led to him changing the game plan and using his wrestling. He got the newcomer to the mat late in Round 2 and nearly the entirety of Round 3, but the damage was already done. Bruno definitely deserved to win the final frame, but it wouldn't have made a difference. Now 34 years of age, Silva drops to 1-3 in his past four fights dating back to March 2022.

Mat woes continue
Silva lost to Brendan Allen via submission (rear-naked choke) at 4:39 of Round 1 at UFC on ABC 5 on Saturday in Jacksonville, Florida.
ANALYSIS
It goes in the books as a submission defeat for Silva, but the truth of the matter is that he was battered on the feet before eventually tapping out. Bruno's power is entirely legitimate, and he cracked Allen with multiple big blows here, but there's zero question which man was the better all-around mixed martial artist. It was clear from the very start Silva was going to be in trouble if he wasn't able to knock his opponent out. Of Silva's nine career defeats, seven have come via submission. Set to turn 34 years of age in mid-July, Silva has lost three of his last four dating back to March 2022, with a unanimous decision defeat to former UFC Middleweight Champion Alex Pereira starting the downfall.
