Thus, the athlete defended his sixth position in the featherweight ranking (up to 65,8 kg).
The favorite to win, Jean took a while to wake up in the fight and clearly lost the first round. However, the Brazilian evened the score in the second round and secured the victory in the third. After landing a powerful straight punch to the American's face, the athlete quickly took his back and, opportunistically, finished him with a rear-naked choke. The hold was so well locked in that Delgado offered no resistance.
