Top 5 winners emerge from UFC Fight Night: Holly Holm vs. Mayra Bueno Silva

UFC Fight Night: Holly Holm vs. Mayra Bueno Silva had few viewers, but several fighters gained significant wins, including Jun Yong Park, Nazim Sadykhov, Francisco Prado, Jack Della Maddalena, and Mayra Bueno Silva.

Last night's UFC Fight Night event, headlined by Holly Holm vs. Mayra Bueno Silva, may not have garnered as much attention as the previous blockbuster show, but it still had its fair share of standout moments. While the event may be forgotten in the near future, there were five fighters who emerged as the biggest winners of the night.

Jun Yong Park, also known as 'The Iron Turtle,' is one of the fighters who often flies under the radar despite his impressive winning streak. Park's performance last night was arguably his best to date, as he submitted Albert Duraev with a rear naked choke in the second round. With a four-fight win streak and only one loss in his past eight bouts, Park's potential as a middleweight contender is uncertain, but he certainly deserves recognition for his recent victories.

Another fighter to watch is Nazim Sadykhov, who made his UFC debut earlier this year with a thrilling win over Evan Elder. Sadykhov faced off against the dangerous Terrance McKinney last night, and despite McKinney's reputation for knockout power, Sadykhov dominated the fight by taking his opponent's back and securing a fight-ending choke. At 29 years old and undefeated since 2018, Sadykhov is a promising prospect in the lightweight division.

At just 21 years old, Francisco Prado showcased his talent in last night's event. Despite losing his UFC debut, Prado impressed by taking Jamie Mullarkey to a decision. However, last night he took his performance to another level, delivering a brutal beating to veteran Ottman Azaitar and securing a victory in the first round. With youth on his side, Prado has the potential to become a future star in the UFC.

Jack Della Maddalena faced a challenging situation last night when his original opponents pulled out of the fight. Despite the risks, Maddalena agreed to compete against Bassil Hafez on short notice and emerged victorious. While he will face tougher competition in the future, Maddalena's win last night and the $50k bonus he received make him a major winner of the event.

The biggest winner of the night was undoubtedly Mayra Bueno Silva, who defeated the highly regarded Holly Holm. Silva, considered an underdog going into the fight, capitalized on an opportunity in the second round when Holm left her neck open in the clinch. Silva locked in a modified guillotine choke, securing the biggest win of her career. This victory puts Silva in contention for a shot at the bantamweight title recently vacated by Amanda Nunes.

Overall, while last night's UFC Fight Night event may not be remembered for long, there were several fighters who stood out and emerged as the biggest winners of the night. Jun Yong Park, Nazim Sadykhov, Francisco Prado, Jack Della Maddalena, and Mayra Bueno Silva all showcased their skills and potential, leaving fans excited for what the future holds for them in the UFC.
