Bruno Silva may never fight again after being released by UFC, and he’s fine with that.

“Blindado” knew that losing his UFC 315 middleweight clash with Marc-Andre Barriault would mean his exit from the promotion since it was a last chance given by matchmaker Mick Maynard, and he ended up suffering the first knockout defeat of his career.

Silva was actually carried out of the octagon on a stretcher following the brutal knockout loss but was feeling better just hours later.
