Noche UFC Post Show: Reaction To Jean Silva’s Big Win, Tommy McMillen’s Rise Sep 13, 2026

Show notes

Jean Silva is back in the mix at 145 pounds.

On Saturday, Silva headlined the fourth iteration of Noche UFC, taking on Jose Miguel Delgado in the main event in Glendale, Arizona. And while he was slow to start, Silva was quick to finish, dropping Delgado in the third round and then tapping him with a one-armed rear-naked choke. Afterward, Silva called for the winner of the upcoming Alexander Volkanovski vs. Movsar Evloev title fight, but will he get it?

Following Noche UFC, MMA Fighting’s Jed Meshew (and Alexander K. Lee for a brief moment) chopped it up about Silva’s impressive performance and what that portends for his future. Jed then also discussed Brandon Moreno’s win over Joseph Morales in the co-main event, the rise of Tommy McMillen as a new star, Alexa Grasso’s return to form, and the rest of the action from Glendale.

No Bets Barred: Jean Silva And Jose Delgado Are About To Go To War At Noche UFC Sep 09, 2026

Show notes

Jean Silva vs. Jose Delgado isn’t the fight we wanted, but it might be the fight we deserve for Noche UFC.

On Saturday, the UFC heads to Glendale for the latest installment of its Noche UFC series, headlined by a featherweight banger between Silva and Delgado.

On the latest episode of No Bets Barred, host Jed Meshew flies solo as he dives into the full Noche UFC card. Topics discussed include whether Delgado is a live underdog against the heavily favored Silva, if this is the end of Brandon Moreno, why Manon Fiorot vs. Alexa Grasso is getting such short shrift, the latest on The Climb, and more.

Tune in for episode 164 of No Bets Barred.
