Mayra Bueno Silva
Career overview
Mayra Bueno Silva, an Orthodox-stance fighter from Brazil with a 10-7-1 professional record, operates as a submission-heavy grappler who averages 1.3 submission attempts per 15 minutes while maintaining modest striking volume at 3.52 strikes landed per minute with 56% accuracy. Her defensive wrestling remains solid at 64% takedown defense, though she initiates takedowns sparingly at 0.46 per 15 minutes with just 23% accuracy, suggesting she relies more on positional control and ground exchanges than aggressive shot attempts.
Silva's recent run has been challenging, compiling a 2-5 record over her last eight fights, including notable submissions over Gillian Robertson in 2018 and Mara Romero Borella in 2020, but more recently suffering consecutive unanimous decision losses to Manon Fiorot (2021), Maryna Moroz (2020), and Raquel Pennington (2024), along with a second-round TKO loss to Macy Chiasson in June 2024 and another decision defeat to Jacqueline Cavalcanti in November 2025. At 33 years old, Silva faces an uphill climb to regain consistent wins in a competitive women's bantamweight division where her submission prowess has proven less decisive against higher-ranked competition.
