Mayra Bueno Silva is in trouble with Nevada State Athletic Commission … again.

The No. 6-ranked women’s bantamweight contender was instructed to remain inside the Octagon after her UFC 303 loss to Macy Chiasson in Las Vegas — but ignored the order and jumped the fence anyway.

“Sheetara” just couldn’t wait to show UFC CEO Dana White her gnarly head wound.

“Mayra Bueno Silva had $2,500 of her $100,000 purse withheld by the Nevada Athletic Commission following her fight at UFC 303 because she jumped up and over the cage after specifically being instructed not to do it,” veteran reporter Damon Martin wrote on Twitter. “Resolution will happen at next meeting on Aug. 27.”

NSAC also pinched this red-hot featherweight for jumping the cage at UFC 300.

Silva (10-4-1, 1 NC) is coming off back-to-back losses to Chiasson and newly-crowned bantamweight champion Raquel Pennington. The 32 year-old Brazilian is currently unbooked but expected to make her Octagon return before the end of the year.
