At No Che UFC last night, Jean Silva defeated Jose Delgado by rear naked choke in the third round. Things got heated afterwards when Silva barked in Delgado's face, which Delgado clearly wasn't happy about. After the fight, Silva revealed that he was knocked out multiple times during training camp.
>> It's crazy to say this, but it went just as we rehearsed back at home, and I do have to admit it to you guys. I actually had I was knocked out a couple of times in the training. I had a big major knockdown when I was there, but it it's amazing cuz I got so many training partners out there, but specifically Icaro Brito Israel, he just followed it to a T.
He followed the plan. We knew exactly what was going to happen, the way they was going to charge, the position they was going to have, and the way we're going to finish it. And as it turns out, we rehearsed it well.
I hope you like the play that we put out to people and the spectacle that we put out for everybody. It happened just as we trained, and it's something that was according to the plot. We had planned for this, and there was a lot of people were looking at him as as this guy is beating up on me right now.
He's striking all the time, but there's something with my coach Flavio Alvaro that always does. We call it presence. Yells at all the time in the corner, says presence, presence, presence.
You You're going to hit him with presence. As you saw, he was moving around, he was feeling it, and at the end of the day, you saw what happened and how we able to finish that. Yes, I have been through paths that he has not been through.
I have been to places in a darkness that he has not been in, and I truly hope that he never encounters or has to face the darkness in the place that I was in after the last No Che. I I truly hope he doesn't have to go through that in his life. In a moment of, you know, the feeling against Diego, it's feeling that you're alone in a low low moment of your life, and you feel a little bit lonely at the bottom out there, and you have to.
So, um for for sure, you come back with presents, you come back with boys, and I [music] hopefully he never never has to encounter something like that, but the experience certainly counted for me. I'm going to ask all you guys at home to just close your eyes and envision it because you're going to see me wearing that belt, and it's not because >> [music] >> it's the next next up for it, but because I've worked so hard for this, and I worked for it to to get it, and once I get it, I'm going to work twice as hard to retire with that belt in my hand. So, just close your eyes, envision it, and that is the [music] next thing that's coming up for me.

I said, "Let's go. " I said, "You having fun yet? " Like I'm having fun, so you know, at the end I did dab him up, giving him his his respect.
He's a tough kid. And you know, he kind of he took the loss like a champ. He looked at me and he said, you know, even though I lost tonight, he said like, you know, I'll be back better.
And I think he will be. I think that kid beats a lot of guys in the division, but not me. I'm different than these guys.
And you know, they have to kill me to get me out of there. That's too fun for me. It wasn't like fighting another man for 15 minutes is pretty chill, so [music] I had fun, bro, tonight.
