Middleweight striker Bruno Silva is ready to restart his climb towards the division’s top 15. Following a hard-fought battle and unanimous decision loss to former GLORY champion Alex Pereira, ‘Blindado’ hopes to bounce back with an impressive finish in August.
Paired up against grappling specialist Gerald Meerschaert, the Brazilian sounds like he’s preparing for a classic clash of styles—one where he hopes his striking prevails. Although Silva says his opponent is not the cleanest striker he will ever face in the Octagon, Blindado is aware that there is no such thing as an easy fight.
In an interview with Combate, Silva explained what he expects from the battle and how he plans to deal with GM3’s awkwardness.
