Glenn Robinson of Authentic Sports Management said the fighter was released on a $25,000 bond following a hearing today in a Broward County (Fla.) court. “I am dealing with getting him out before day’s end,” Robinson wrote via text message. “Just working on paperwork.” Robinson said he and several others, including UFC light heavyweight Rashad Evans and Fabianna Popovitch, spoke on Silva’s behalf during the hearing. According to a report from a Florida NBC affiliate , Silva was ordered to stay away from his wife, Thaysa Silva, who according to a police report was involved in a romantic relationship with Pablo Popovitch.
