Don’t talk trash!

Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Women’s Bantamweight title challenger Mayra Bueno Silva dropped her fifth straight fight this past weekend (Sat., April 25, 2026), losing a unanimous decision to rising prospect and former teammate Michelle Montague on the UFC Vegas 116 prelims inside the Meta Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada.

It was a rough start for “Sheetara,” who landed zero significant strikes in Round 1 while being controlled for more than four minutes. She bounced back in Round 2 with a strong showing, but Montague regained control in the final frame, sealing the decision win.

The skid sparked immediate backlash online, with fans calling for Silva’s release — something the Brazilian didn’t take lightly.

“Man, I was here looking at the comments. You know, I don’t usually look at them, but today I decided to check out the comments on people’s posts about my fight about me as a fighter,” Silva said on Instagram. “It’s amazing to see that relevant people do not comment, right? They might even think something, but they don’t comment. But then there’s this bunch of losers who just sit behind a keyboard talking trash about other people’s lives, about those who left home early to conquer the world, to try for a better life for themselves and their families. They have no idea.”
