From his mixed martial arts debut to the UFC, everything happened fast in Henrique da Silva’s career. And shortly after his first losses, "Frankenstein" realized he had to make some changes.
da Silva already had a 9-0 record in the sport two years after his first MMA bout. In fact, the Brazilian light heavyweight was so addicted to competing he won two fights by knockout in two different cities in his home state of Para in a span of 24 hours.
It didn’t take long for the UFC to make the call and sign da Silva for his Octagon debut, when he finished Jonathan Wilson at UFC 199.
