Jean Silva admits that he got caught up in the moment against Diego Lopes.
Silva fell to Lopes via second-round technical knockout in the Noche UFC headliner at the Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, Texas on Saturday night. After surviving a difficult opening round, “Lord” was picking up steam in the second stanza before Lopes caught him with a spinning back elbow to set up a finish at the 4:48 mark of the period.
“Unfortunately, yesterday the emotion got the better of me,” Silva said in Portuguese on his Instagram storeis (translation via Championship Rounds).
