Yair Rodriguez and Jean Silva are set to clash in a five-round main event at the upcoming Noche UFC fight night on September 12th in Glendale, Arizona.
Noche UFC has become an annual staple for the organization, commemorating Mexican Independence Day. This time, Rodriguez gets the opportunity to headline the event in his first fight in over a year. The former featherweight title challenger last competed in 2025, securing a victory over former Bellator champion Patricio Pitbull, snapping a two-fight losing streak.
Now, Rodriguez makes his return against one of the most dangerous fighters in the 145-pound division.
