However, his split decision victory over Scott Holtzman in the previous contest displayed his enduring spirit. With a record of 38 wins and 20 losses, Guida aims to bounce back with a memorable performance.

Prediction:

In this clash between experience and dynamism, Joaquim Silva holds the keys to victory. Known for his striking prowess and ability to finish fights, Silva poses a significant threat to Clay Guida. The age difference might play a factor, and Silva's recent setback will fuel his determination to come back stronger.

Look for Silva to capitalize on his striking advantages, utilizing his southpaw stance to keep Guida at bay. If Silva can maintain the distance and avoid getting entangled in Guida's grappling exchanges, he has a strong chance of securing a decisive win, possibly by knockout.
