Jean Silva Fighting On Second Straight Card
9 months agoJean Silva (13-2) is set to move up to lightweight to take on Drew Dober on short notice at UFC Denver. Silva is coming off a second-round knockout win over Charles Jourdain at UFC 303 which was two weeks ago, and the last UFC card. However, he missed weight in that fight which is why he's moving up to lightweight. Silva enters the fight as a slight underdog as DraftKings has him at a salary of $8,000. In the UFC, Silva is 2-0 with both of his wins by knockout, but this is a major step up in competition. If Silva gets his hand raised at UFC Denver he could get a ranked opponent next.
