The fourth annual Noche UFC takes place ahead of Mexican Independence Day weekend. Jean Silva, on the verge of a featherweight title shot, returns to the stage where he suffered his last defeat. The Brazilian headlines his second consecutive Noche UFC, this time fighting Mexican-American Jose Delgado.
Silva had never been finished heading into last year's Noche UFC. Diego Lopes became the first person to accomplish that feat, stopping Silva with strikes in the second round. Lopes went on to challenge for the featherweight title while Silva rebounded impressively against Arnold Allen.
Silva, a ferocious striker, is determined to punch his ticket to a title shot. He'll have to look the part against short-notice replacement Delgado, a fighter with gifted physical advantages, to get there. .
