Jose
Delgado believes Jean Silva
is hiding his real personality.

Delgado (12-2) and Silva (17-3) will headline the
Ultimate Fighting Championship’s fourth edition of Noche UFC on
Sept. 12 at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona. Silva was
originally scheduled to fight Yair
Rodriguez, who pulled out due to an injury. Following
Rodriguez’s withdrawal, Delgado stepped up and recently slammed his
upcoming opponent, calling his persona inauthentic.

Jose Delgado attacks Jean Silva’s persona ahead of Noche UFC
4

Delgado is high in confidence going into
Noche UFC 4. He recently claimed that beating Silva puts him in
title contention, setting him up for the winner of
UFC 333’s featherweight championship main event between current
champ Alexander
Volkanovski and unbeaten challenger Movsar
Evloev.

“I expect violence. I expect to break this guy,” Delgado told Ariel
Helwani. “I expect a freaking stunner of a KO… If Jean Silva took
out Yair Rodriguez, he’d be fighting for the title after Volk and
Movsar fight. Why wouldn’t I steal that spotlight? Why wouldn’t I
steal that opportunity?”

Silva has a quirky personality, as he often barks like a dog.
Delgado believes the Brazilian is a coward who is hiding behind the
mask of a loud persona. He plans to let “Lord” bark all he wants
before he gets put down.

“It is an illusion for him, man… He’s a coward,” Delgado added. “He
needs that mask to make himself feel good. It’s a disguise, and
it’s a farce. I don’t respect it. I think it’s cowardly. I will put
him down like a dog. [Before] you just let the dog bark.”

Delgado is 4-1 in the UFC and coming off wins over Andre Fili
and Austin
Bashi. Meanwhile, Silva is 6-1 in the UFC with five knockouts
and his only loss coming against two-time title challenger Diego
Lopes.
