Noche UFC 4 Highlights! Silva Steals The Show With Slick One-Arm Choke

Jean Silva reminded the featherweight division just how good he is earlier today (Sat., Sept. 12, 2026) at Noche UFC 4 LIVE on Paramount+ from inside Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona, when the Brazilian contender stopped eager challenger Jose Miguel Delgado with a third-round submission (rear-naked choke).

While Silva was a massive betting favorite due to Delgado accepting this fight on short notice you really wouldn’t have known. Silva didn’t even throw a punch in the first few minutes of the first round, which allowed Delgado to tee off at will. Delgado even scored a knockdown in the first round that stole all the momentum heading into the second.

That’s when Silva rebounded and finally started to let his hands go. Delgado was constantly on his back foot and wasn’t able to land the same shots he did earlier in the fight. This allowed Silva to start finding success with his punches and do some damage along the way. Silva continued his resurgence in the third round when he clipped Delgado along the fence with a perfect right hand. Moments later, Silva was on Delgado’s back and quickly sunk one arm under the chin to squeeze and force the tap.

Check out the video highlights below and let us know where this main event win takes Silva heading into 2027!
