It all goes down tomorrow evening (Sat., Sept. 13, 2025) at Noche UFC 3 LIVE on ESPN+ from inside Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, Tex., as UFC returns for another jam-packed fight card in celebration of Mexican Independence Day.
Leading the way will be a tantalizing main event scrap between featherweight brawlers Diego Lopes and Jean Silva. For Lopes, this is his chance to rebound from a recent decision loss to Alexander Volkanovski and continue to fight his way back to another UFC title shot. As for Silva, he’s trying to improve on a perfect 5-0 UFC record to prove his finishing ability can be effective against the best in the world. The fact that both fighters have shared some bad blood leading into Saturday’s headliner will only make it more interesting (and violent) for fight fans.
In addition to Lopes vs. Silva, Noche UFC 3 will feature a variety of fan-friendly matchups. This includes a co-headliner between bantamweight strikers Rob Font and David Martinez, a lightweight barn burner between Jared Gordon and Rafa Garcia, a women’s strawweight clash involving former UFC title challengers Tatiana Suarez and Amanda Lemos, and, of course, the Octagon debut of Alice Pereira.
Ahead of Saturday’s action, all fighters took to the stage for ceremonial weigh ins and some intense final staredowns. Check out some of the premier matchups below:
