Former UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion Julianna Pena and Mayra Bueno Silva has turned into enemies real quick after Silva failed a drug for ADHD medication and Pena pounced on her for the infraction quickly thereafter.
While Silva and Pena are not scheduled to fight anytime soon, an angry Silva promises to kill Pena whenever they do meet in the Octagon.
“Hey, Julianna,” Bueno Silva said on The MMA Hour. “I will kill you. When you talk about mental health, you show you’re not good people. Everyone knows I had problems with anxiety because of my mental health. When you use this to promote yourself, it’s not a good person.”
Up next for Silva is a co-main event bout against Raquel Pennington for the vacant UFC Women’s Bantamweight Title at UFC 297.
Silva’s other big problem with Pena is how much the former women’s bantamweight champion runs her mouth.
“Look, the girl thinks she’s the champion but she’s not the champion,” Bueno Silva said. “Can someone please tell her she lost the last fight [against Amanda Nunes]? When she had an opportunity, she ran away from Amanda. Now she ran again. You know the toy, the chicken you squeeze and the chicken, ‘squawk squawk,’ Julianna is like that. Julianna only talks bulls***. She’s not a great fighter. She runs from every opportunity. She’s a noisy chicken.”
