A featherweight clash between Bryce Mitchell and Jean Silva will go down later this evening (April 12) on the main card of UFC 314 at the Kaseya Center in Miami.
Mitchell (17-2) is one of the most polarizing stars in the whole of MMA. While his flat Earth beliefs and eccentric persona have both attracted fans and haters, his recent controversial take on a WW II German dictator has landed 'Thug Nasty' under tremendous public scrutiny.
Regardless, the 30-year-old is one of the best grapplers in the division and boasts wins against the likes of Dan Ige and Edson Barboza among others.
