Jean Silva is not willing to 'bark louder' than Patrício Pitbull . After winning at UFC 331 , the former Bellator champion used the event's spotlight to challenge the Fighting Nerds representative and decide who is the fiercest dog in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. The challenge, however, was immediately rejected by 'Lord'.

In a video posted to his YouTube channel, Jean Silva reacted to Patrício Pitbull 's challenge in a lighthearted tone. The fighter stated, amidst laughter, that the former champion's invitation would put him in a difficult situation and ruled out the possibility of facing the veteran at this time.
