Noche UFC: Silva vs. Delgado
September 12, 2026 · Glendale, Arizona, USA · Upcoming
Silva's superior TD defense and grappling control neutralize Delgado's reach edge, and his high-volume output with better recent UFC form supports the market favorite.
Moreno is a former champion with far more elite-level experience, higher output, and better TD defense; Morales' weak 26% TD defense is exploitable by Moreno's grappling.
McMillen has massive volume edge (13.54 SLpM vs 7.75) and better reach/height, undefeated with 100% finish rate in UFC. Rahiki's tighter defense is offset by McMillen's output advantage.
Fiorot has superior volume, striking defense, and takedown defense, plus better recent form (4-1 vs 2-2-1 in last 5). Her output and defense edges outweigh Grasso's reach and submission threat.
Blaydes' elite volume wrestling (5.12 TD/fight) and cage control give him a path to grind out rounds, though Cortes Acosta's 73% TD defense keeps it competitive on the feet.
Martinez is younger, undefeated in UFC (3-0), with superior striking output/accuracy and elite TD defense, while Ige is on a 4-of-5 fight losing skid at 35 and declining.
Elliott's wrestling (3.61 TD avg, 59% TD def) contrasts sharply with Chairez's non-existent takedown game and weak 47% TD defense, giving Elliott a path to control and grind out rounds despite being the underdog in the model.
Bahamondes has significant reach/height advantage, much higher output (5.99 SLpM), and is 13 years younger with better recent form momentum than the 42-year-old Salikhov.
Belgaroui has huge reach/height advantage, superior striking accuracy and defense, and a perfect UFC record with 100% finish rate, while Santos has poor striking defense and inconsistent recent form.
Gantt's elite takedown volume (11.29/fight) and 100% TD defense neutralize Klose's grappling while exploiting his 49% strike defense. Klose's age (38.5) and durability concerns favor Gantt's control-heavy style over 15 minutes.
Garcia's active 3-fight win streak and superior takedown ability (77% TD def, 3.22 avg) give him control options against Rongzhu's high-volume but lower-defense striking (52% str def).
No stats or market data available for either fighter, making this essentially a coin flip. Slight edge given based on name recognition trends in featherweight prospects, but confidence is minimal.
Tarin's much higher output (7.6 vs 3.92 SLpM) and better TD accuracy give her an edge, though Aldrich's UFC experience narrows the gap. Model and volume trends favor Tarin winning rounds.
