Erick Silva ‘embarrassed’, critical of his ‘ridiculous performance’ against Neil Magny

Erick Silva had the chance to win his third straight in the UFC Octagon for the first time Sunday night, but came up short against Neil Magny in the co-main event of UFC Fight Night 74 in Saskatoon, Canada.

Disappointed with his performance after a split decision loss, Silva took on his social media to apologize, and hinted at a possible injury he suffered before the fight.

"Honestly, I didn’t like my performance," Silva posted on his Instagram. "I was defeated. I’m embarrassed with my performance, my body. I know I’m way more than this Erick that fought last night.
