It's been a non-stop ride for Jean Silva ever since he debuted on Dana White's Contender Series in 2023.

The 28-year-old featherweight is a member of one of the fastest rising mixed martial arts teams today, The Fighting Nerds. Alongside Caio Borralho, Mauricio Ruffy and Bruna Brasil, Silva and The Fighting Nerds have taken the UFC by storm over the past few years. Silva has been a huge part of that success, going a perfect 3-0 in the UFC in 2024 after earning his contract on the Tuesday night series.
