Brown clocked Silva with a clean right hand to start the fight, but from there, the featherweights largely engaged in a grappling battle. While Silva had his moments, Brown was far more strategic and sharp, grinding out long stretches in controlling positions, searching for submissions, landing sporadic attacks, and simply keeping the 35-year-old debutant from getting anything started.
Late in the third, Brown worked to set up an arm triangle choke, clamping his hands together and clearing his legs, drawing out a tap from Silva. An impressive effort ends with a finish, and brings Brown back to even inside the Octagon, while Silva departs his debut with the sour taste of defeat in his mouth. | Official Scorecards
