LAS VEGAS – Karine Silva came close to locking up a gogoplata submission at Dana White’s Contender Series 45, and she plans on landing it in the UFC. Though she didn’t get the gogoplata, Silva (14-4) was able to show off her jiu-jitsu skills when she submitted Yan Qihui by guillotine choke in the second round on Tuesday, which earned her a UFC contract. Silva almost cinched in a gogoplata on Qihui toward the end of the first round, but the Brazilian was unable to get a proper hold of her opponent. Having notched submissions via armbar, guillotine, heel hook and triangle choke, Silva hopes to add a gogoplata to her resume – but in the octagon.
