Felipe Silva anxious for UFC return after ‘scared' fighters turned down fights

Felipe Silva is still unbeaten in MMA after scoring a 73-second knockout over Shane Campbell in his UFC debut last August, but he hasn’t fought since.

The lightweight talent, who finished seven opponents in eight professional wins, has called out a pair of UFC fighters in an attempt to make some noise and get a fight, but is still waiting for the promotion to call with good news.

"I called out Sage Northcutt and David Teymur, whose record is similar to mine but has a bigger name in the UFC, but we had no answers,” Silva told MMA Fighting.
