Claudio Silva inspired by teammates Amanda Nunes, Thiago Santos to win UFC gold

Amanda Nunes became the UFC bantamweight and featherweight queen years after moving to American Top Team. Thiago Santos benefited from TFT’s partnership with ATT to evolve and one day give Jon Jones one of his toughest fights ever.

Claudio Silva, winner of 12 straight, looks up to them after his long-awaited first camp at the Florida-based mixed martial arts gym.

Victorious in his four appearances under the UFC banner, “Hannibal” returns to the Octagon against promotional newcomer Cole Williams at Saturday’s UFC on ESPN 5 in Newark, and told MMA Fighting that joining ATT was a longtime dream.
