In early August 2026, the UFC announced that Brazilian featherweight Jean Silva would face Mexico’s Yair Rodriguez at UFC Noche on September 12 in Glendale, Arizona. The five-round bout at the Desert Diamond Arena was positioned as a main event between the division’s #6 and #5 ranked fighters, with the winner poised to move into title-eliminator contention against champion Alexander Volkanovski. The event, titled Noche UFC 4, celebrates Mexican Independence Day and is scheduled to stream exclusively on Paramount+. On August 19, 2026, Rodriguez withdrew from the main event due to an injury sustained during training, stating it would be “irresponsible to compete in his current condition.” The UFC replaced him with Jose Delgado, the No. 14 ranked featherweight and an Arizona native.
