Gene Silva vs Marlon Vera grappling match set for Hype FC

Gene Silva and Marlon Vera will face each other in a grappling match at Hype FC in Sao Paulo on the night of April 8-9. This bout will serve as the main event of the evening. The announcement confirms that a previously anticipated match between Arman Tsarukyan and Denis will not take place at this event. The co-main event will feature Deiveson Figueiredo versus Carlos Rosas Jr., as previously announced. This represents a departure from traditional MMA competition for both Silva and Vera, who will test their skills in a pure grappling format.
