Mayra Bueno Silva
Sheetara
Brazil
Losing streak hits four
Bueno Silva lost to Jacqueline Cavalcanti via unanimous decision (27-30, 28-29, 27-30) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
The UFC ran Bueno Silva back out there despite the fact she entered having lost three straight and she put together another woeful performance. She spent the vast majority of the fight standing around and doing nothing and letting Cavalcanti lead the dance. Bueno Silva is never going to win a prolonged kickboxing match and this was the latest example of that. She failed on all three of her takedown attempts. Less than two years after fighting for a UFC title, Bueno Silva's time with the company has almost certainly come to an end.

Losing streak hits three
Bueno Silva lost to Jasmine Jasudavicius via unanimous decision (27-30, 27-30, 27-30) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
ANALYSIS
It's all fallen apart on Bueno Silva in the span of a year. Last January, she dropped a unanimous decision to Raquel Pennington in a title fight. She then was knocked out by Macy Chiasson in June before getting swept on the scorecards by Jasudavicius here. Bueno Silva was somewhat competitive on the feet before being totally overwhelmed by the grappling game of the Canadian. There's no easy fix here. Bueno Silva clearly isn't on the same level as the top women in the division. Her future is firmly up in the air.

Next opponent booked
Bueno Silva will take on Jasmine Jasudavicius in a flyweight bout at UFC Saudi Arabia on Feb. 1, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Bueno Silva is in desperate need of a win. She's flirting with a three-bout losing streak that would drop her UFC record to a perilous 5-5-1-1, and most recently lost to Macy Chiasson back in June in the second round. While her opponent Jasudavicius has won three straight and is looking to stack momentum, this is a massively important fight for Bueno Silva in the promotion's eyes.
