The Noche UFC Results are official after a packed 13-fight card at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona. Jean Silva delivered the biggest finish of the night by submitting Jose Miguel Delgado, while Brandon Moreno returned to winning form against Joseph Morales. Alexa Grasso, Curtis Blaydes and several rising UFC talents also secured important victories.
Jean Silva Headlines Noche UFC With Submission Win
Jean Silva closed out the event with a spectacular third-round submission against Jose Miguel Delgado. Silva survived a difficult opening round before taking control of the fight and eventually forcing Delgado to tap at 2:57 of Round 3 with a rare one-arm rear-naked choke.
Silva improved to 18-3-0 with the victory and continued his recovery after suffering his first UFC defeat against Diego Lopes at last year’s Noche UFC. Delgado, who accepted the main event on short notice after Yair Rodriguez withdrew, fell to 12-3-0 following the loss.
The main event will receive a separate detailed breakdown, but Silva’s victory was clearly one of the biggest moments of the entire card. The Brazilian now has another important win to build on as he looks toward the upper end of the featherweight division.
Brandon Moreno Returns to Winning Form
Former UFC flyweight champion Brandon Moreno also picked up a much-needed victory against Joseph Morales in the co-main event. Moreno won by unanimous decision, with two judges scoring the fight 30-27 and the third giving him a 29-28 score.
The victory moved Moreno to 24-10-2 and ended his two-fight losing streak. Morales, who entered the contest after winning The Ultimate Fighter 33, dropped to 15-3-0 after failing to maintain his momentum against the former champion.
Moreno’s performance was particularly important because another loss could have pushed him further away from the flyweight title picture. His win now gives him an opportunity to rebuild his position in a division preparing for a new championship chapter.
Alexa Grasso Beats Manon Fiorot
Alexa Grasso produced one of the strongest performances on the main card by defeating Manon Fiorot via unanimous decision. All three judges scored the fight 29-28 for the former UFC women’s flyweight champion.
Grasso started aggressively and scored an early knockdown before maintaining pressure throughout the three-round contest. Fiorot made adjustments as the fight progressed, but Grasso’s boxing and offensive pace helped her secure the decision.
The win improved Grasso to 18-5-1 and gave her back-to-back victories. With the women’s flyweight title picture changing, another strong performance could put Grasso back into championship contention.
Curtis Blaydes Gets Important Heavyweight Win
Curtis Blaydes bounced back from his previous defeat by earning a unanimous decision over Waldo Cortes-Acosta. The judges scored the heavyweight contest 29-28 across the board, giving Blaydes a valuable victory in a division where rankings can change quickly.
Blaydes improved to 20-6-0 with one no contest, while Cortes-Acosta fell to 17-4-0. The fight was not the explosive heavyweight contest many fans expected, but Blaydes’ wrestling and control were enough to earn the decision.
The result could help Blaydes remain relevant among the UFC’s ranked heavyweights. Fans can also follow the division through Sportsgotec’s latest UFC Heavyweight Rankings coverage.
Tommy McMillen Remains Undefeated
Tommy McMillen continued his impressive rise by defeating Marwan Rahiki in a competitive featherweight battle. McMillen won by unanimous decision after three rounds, improving his professional record to 12-0-0.
Rahiki pushed McMillen throughout the fight and nearly found a finish in the second round. McMillen recovered strongly and produced a late surge in the third, including a knockdown that helped him secure the judges’ decision.
The win makes McMillen one of the most interesting young featherweights to watch coming out of Noche UFC. His undefeated record and willingness to compete in high-paced fights could make him a bigger name in the division soon.
David Martinez Extends His Winning Run
David Martinez also picked up another important victory by defeating veteran Dan Ige via unanimous decision. The judges scored the bantamweight contest 30-27, 30-27 and 29-28 in Martinez’s favor.
Martinez improved to 15-1-0 and continued his rise toward the top of the UFC bantamweight division. Ige, meanwhile, suffered another setback while making his move down to bantamweight.
The result gives Martinez another established UFC name on his résumé. His momentum could now lead to a significantly tougher opponent in his next appearance.
