Unbeaten on MMA, Jussier “Formiga” da Silva, considered the best flyweight on earth, finally will have his chance to shine on American events. Ignored by Shooto’s promoters, where he fought once, beat the champion at that time (in a non-title fight) and has not been called ever since, the Brazilian signed a four fights contract with Tachi Palace Fights. Formiga does not have a date set to debut, but the expectations are for a duel between him and Ulysses Gomez, current champion of the division.
