The condition of Bellator fighter Daiane Silva is improving as her stay in a London hospital crosses one month, much of which included being in a coma. Silva (3-0) was scheduled to compete against Eman Almudhaf in a women’s featherweight bout at Bellator Champions Series: London on Sept. 14. During the final stages of a weight cut with expectations of hitting the 146-pound non-title divisional limit, Silva began to show signs of severe physical stress due to dehydration and fainted, a person with knowledge of the situation told MMA Junkie under the condition of anonymity. The 29-year-old Brazilian subsequently was hospitalized and was induced into a coma, where she remained for several weeks.
