Wellington Turman is a fundamentalist on the ground and in the striking department. He prefers to keep things simple and often finds success over the course of 15 minutes. Almost half of his pro wins have come via submission and he’s well equipped with RNC’s submission as well as Guillotine’s.
Bruno Silva comes into the UFC riding a 4 fight win streak and he is more experienced than Turman as a professional. He’s bounced around several organizations, racking up an impressive 19-6 record on route to the UFC. With four straight KO/TKO wins to his name, the Brazilian will be confident that the odds are heavily in his favor.
