Jean Silva arrived prepared for his verbal battle with Bryce Mitchell at the UFC 314 press conference.
Soon after continuing on his violent path up the featherweight ladder at last month’s UFC Fight Night in Seattle, Silva had his next assignment added to the calendar.
The active Brazilian got his wish to be the one with an opportunity to make Mitchell pay inside the cage for his recent pro-Nazi podcast remarks.
And while that controversy resulted in Silva leading “f*ck Bryce Mitchell” chants alongside the fans in attendance at Friday’s presser in Las Vegas, “Lord” also had another topic the American has frequently given his two cents on in mind.
The Fighting Nerds standout arrived with a globe, poking fun at “Thug Nasty’s” belief that the Earth is flat.
The press conference came just over a month out from UFC 314, which goes down inside Miami’s Kaseya Center on April 12.
Silva and Mitchell’s battle makes up a stacked undercard, which will see the likes of Michael Chandler, Patricio Pitbull, Yan Xiaonan, and Carlos Prates set the stage for Alexander Volkanovski and Diego Lopes’ championship headliner.
