UFC celebrates Mexican Independence in Glendale, Arizona this year. The promotion returns with its fourth annual Noche UFC card, taking shape as a UFC Fight Night headlined by Jean Silva and Jose Delgado.
Originally, a dynamic striking bout between Silva and Yair Rodriguez was planned for the main event. After Rodriguez suffered an injury, Mexican-American featherweight Delgado answered the call. He's an impressive prospect with great finishing instincts, but takes a major leap forward against Silva, a brutal finisher on the cusp of a title shot.
Noche UFC also features former women's strawweight champion Alexa Grasso, fresh off a terrifying knockout of Maycee Barber, facing Manon Fiorot. Fellow former champion Brandon Moreno is also on the card, plus an exciting prospect battle between Tommy MicMillen and Marwan Rahiki.

One week later, UFC returns to Los Angeles with another numbered event. Joshua Van and Alexandre Pantoja seek closure after an injury spoiled their last flyweight title fight. In the co-main event, Arman Tsarukyan will likely demand a lightweight title shot with a win over Mauricio Ruffy.
