Mayra Bueno Silva fined for hopping cage to speak with Dana White at UFC 303
Don’t hop the fence, UFC fighters … or Nevada will come for a portion of your paycheck.
[autotag]Mayra Bueno Silva[/autotag]’s decision to scale the fence and speak to Dana White immediately following the stoppage in her UFC 303 bout has cost her.
On Thursday, the Nevada Athletic Commission fined Bueno Silva $2,500, plus $157.04 in prosecution fees, for leaping the cage after her June 29 bout at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas ended in a doctor’s stoppage.
The commission said Bueno Silva “against previous instruction exited the octagon by jumping over the fence.”
The fine is the second time this year a UFC contender has received such a fine. Diego Lopes was hit with the same $2,500 punishment after he jumped the cage at UFC 300 in April.
Bueno Silva has not commented publicly on the matter.
