Claudio \u00ab\u00a0Hannibal\u00a0\u00bb Silva \u2014 le sp\u00e9cialiste de la soumission qui a fait taper Leon Edwards<\/h2>\n

Le gars qui a battu un futur champion<\/h3>\n

Avant que Leon Edwards ne devienne champion du monde des welters et ic\u00f4ne de l’UFC, il y a un Br\u00e9silien qui lui a inflig\u00e9 l’une de ses deux d\u00e9faites professionnelles : Claudio \u00ab\u00a0Hannibal\u00a0\u00bb Silva. C’\u00e9tait le 8 novembre 2014 \u00e0 Uberl\u00e2ndia, Br\u00e9sil, en d\u00e9cision partag\u00e9e, lors de l’UFC Fight Night 56. Un r\u00e9sultat qui dit beaucoup sur le niveau de Silva \u00e0 son \u00e9poque.<\/p>\n

N\u00e9 le 6 septembre 1982 \u00e0 Rondon\u00f3polis dans l’\u00c9tat du Mato Grosso, Cl\u00e1udio Henrique da Silva a grandi dans le berceau du jiu-jitsu br\u00e9silien. Ceinture noire sous la direction de Ricardo Vieira, champion du monde de BJJ en 2009, il passe au MMA professionnel en 2007 \u00e0 24 ans \u2014 tard par rapport aux standards actuels, mais avec un bagage de soumissions qui allait faire sa r\u00e9putation.<\/p>\n

Un parcours construit sur l’\u00e9tranglement<\/h3>\n

Avant d’arriver \u00e0 l’UFC, Silva passe ses premi\u00e8res ann\u00e9es \u00e0 peaufiner son jeu \u00e0 l’acad\u00e9mie London Shootfighters, entre le Br\u00e9sil et l’Angleterre, ce qui lui vaut une double nationalit\u00e9 br\u00e9silo-britannique. Il arrive dans l’Octogone en mars 2014 avec un bilan d\u00e9j\u00e0 solide et d\u00e9bute par une victoire en d\u00e9cision unanime contre Brad Scott \u00e0 l’UFC Fight Night 37.<\/p>\n

Sa sp\u00e9cialit\u00e9, c’est l’\u00e9tranglement dos \u2014 le rear-naked choke. Sur 14 victoires en carri\u00e8re, 9 sont venues par soumission. En mai 2018 \u00e0 l’UFC Fight Night 130, il fait taper Nordine Taleb d\u00e8s le premier round via rear-naked choke et d\u00e9croche le bonus Performance of the Night. Propre, efficace, sans bavure.<\/p>\n

Trois d\u00e9faites sur d\u00e9cision, puis la retraite<\/h3>\n

La fin de carri\u00e8re de Silva \u00e0 l’UFC n’a pas la m\u00eame saveur. Entre octobre 2020 et juillet 2022, il encaisse trois d\u00e9faites cons\u00e9cutives en d\u00e9cision unanime \u2014 contre James Krause (octobre 2020), Court McGee (mai 2021) et Nicolas Dalby (juillet 2022). Trois combats o\u00f9 il n’a pas r\u00e9ussi \u00e0 imposer son jeu de soumission, face \u00e0 des adversaires qui ont su g\u00e9rer la distance et \u00e9viter le sol. En janvier 2023, \u00e0 40 ans, il annonce sa retraite avec un bilan final de 14 victoires et 4 d\u00e9faites, et 8 passages sous la banni\u00e8re UFC.<\/p>\n

L’h\u00e9ritage d’un soumissionnaire pur<\/h3>\n

Claudio Silva n’a jamais \u00e9t\u00e9 un combattant spectaculaire au sens percutant du terme \u2014 il ne cherchait pas le KO, il cherchait le cou ou le bras. Avec 9 victoires par soumission sur 14, un titre mondial de BJJ en 2009 et une victoire sur un futur champion de l’UFC, son passage dans les arts martiaux mixtes laisse la trace d’un sp\u00e9cialiste qui savait exactement quel \u00e9tait son outil le plus dangereux.<\/p>\n
