Jean Silva is promising

[FrankDux]

Only 27 years old.

14-2

11 fight win streak

3-0 in UFC

Hasn't lost a fight since April 2018

He definitely has my attention. He's got a good sprawl and he's got good striking/IQ/head movement.

 

[fortheo]

His last name doesn't end in -ov or -ev, so I'm not interested.


Just kidding. He's very fun. Give him a ranked featherweight next.

 

[ElLunico]

He's a beast but boy does he cry a lot. He's emotionally all over the place.

But yes he's very promising with an exciting style. I was impressed how he was tossing a big LW in Dober around. He's strong af, fast and with KO power

 

[Eternalwarriorking]

I'll certainly be interested to see if he keeps floating to LW, assuming he'll be making the FW cut consistently.

If a FW is blowing apart top 25ish LWs like that, you can only hope as a FW that dude just can't make the cut. Everything he touched Jourdain with seemed to hurt, who is very tough.

Count me on the war wagon, I'm tempted to go to bed now because there's no way anything else tonight tops that performance lol

 

[Khaosan]

He’s fun to watch but I feel like people are fighting him stupidly.

ALL PRAISE THE JUST BLEED LORD




And he seems to be ill in the head, which makes it even more enjoyable.

 

[DrRodentia]

Jourdain and Dober in two weeks is pretty fuckin impressive. Not grade A guys, but not easy opponents at all. Especially with Dober being so much bigger.

 

[sanguinius]

Will he be staying at lightweight from now on? He didn’t seem weak.

 

[BlankaPresident]

Will he be staying at lightweight from now on? He didn’t seem weak.

I saw an interview earlier this week with him saying lightweight was only for this fight and he belongs to FW.

Also said he took this fight on short notice as an apology to Sean Shelby, after the missing weight fiasco for his last fight.

 

[Boguentoo]

Will he be staying at lightweight from now on? He didn’t seem weak.

No

His teammate, Mauricio Ruffy, is fighting in LW.

Jean Silva will just return to FW and get a better cut next timing.

Undeniably so, yeah. He annoys the fuck out of me but you can't doubt his gameness and talent.

 

[Limeade]

I liked all his spinning elbow counters. Did anyone pick up on how he sets it up or how he loads it wolithout going out of position?
