Related Topics: Bruno Silva

Three weeks? No problem. That’s the motto Joshua Van is singing this week as he heads into his second high-stakes fight in the span of 21 days.

After delivering a highlight-reel finish against Bruno Silva at UFC 316 in New Jersey, Van will be back in action this Saturday when the promotion closes out International Fight Week with a loaded UFC 317 card in Las Vegas. There, ‘The Fearless’ will look to extend his unbeaten streak to five when he faces the always dangerous Bradon Royval.
