UFC veteran Felipe Silva signs with Brave CF, headlines September card in Colombia

Brave CF’s second trip to Bogota, Colombia, on Sept. 7, will be headlined by UFC lightweight veteran Felipe Silva versus Guram Kutateladze, promotion officials told MMA Fighting on Monday.

Silva (8-2) entered the Octagon three times between 2016 and 2018. In his UFC debut, the CM System talent knocked out Shane Campbell in just 73 seconds. With long layoffs between bouts, Silva was let go by the company after back-to-back defeats to Mairbek Taisumov and Claudio Puelles.

Kutateladze (10-2) is riding a seven-fight winning streak that includes one appearance under the Brave CF banner, a decision victory over TUF Brazil 4 veteran Erick da Silva last September.
