UFC Fight Night 262: Silva vs. Park takes place October 18, 2025, at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, Canada. This flyweight clash features ranked Brazilian finisher Bruno Gustavo da Silva (#14) against rising South Korean submission ace Park Hyun-sung, with top-10 stakes for the winner.
Bruno Gustavo da Silva
Bruno Silva (14–7–2, 1 NC) is a Brazilian firebrand known for explosive finishes, heavy hands, and opportunistic submissions. The Piracicaba native has earned four UFC “Performance of the Night” bonuses, including stoppages of JP Buys, Victor Rodriguez, Tyson Nam, and Cody Durden. Silva can end fights with his striking (6 KOs) or snap up chokes in transitions (4 subs), though he has shown vulnerabilities to body attacks, leg strikes, and late-round cardio issues.
Silva thrives in the early going, using aggressive pace and power to overwhelm opponents, but consistency and defensive gaps have occasionally cost him against more technical or durable foes.
