Silva is now 5-0 in the UFC with all five wins coming by stoppage. With that solid run, Silva made it clear in his post-fight interview that he is targeting the winner of the UFC 314 main event between Alexander Volkanovski and Diego Lopes for the featherweight title.

The UFC crowd in Miami raucously cheered for a man who praised Hitler for trying to remove the Jews from Germany earlier this year.

On the UFC 314 main card, Silva (16-2 MMA, 5-0 UFC) tapped Mitchell (17-3 MMA, 8-3 UFC) with a ninja choke at Kaseya Center in Miami. The stoppage came at 3:52 of Round 2.
