Jean SIlva is allergic to leading - He will pressure you, but will not throw if you aren't throwing at him. He wants to counter, but the most he will do to draw out attacks will be occasional weak front kicks, a swooping lead hook or over swung 1-2's ..
If you shoot on him, his first reaction is to wrap his left arm around your neck, basically letting you get a bodylock while 'threatening' the guillotine, while there's actually no guillotine threat.
Silva will not check leg kicks, he will just take the kick.. In Southpaw and Orthodox
Silva will switch stance infront of opponents, he will not hide the switch with punches or circle off to switch. He will do it infront of you, being easily counterable (Imavov knocking out Adesanya)
When standing in front of each other, no one pressuring or opponent iniating offense, Silva go to is a step back counter lead hook, he can get this attack drawn out and hit with a straight if you jab in, double jab in, jab, feint then go in, Silva will go straight back and throw the hook (Jourdain did it and landed, but got dropped when just throwing a naked straight against silva)
Silva is wide open to body and has eaten several
When being pressured Silvas go to punch/counter when someone throws at him is a leadhook / overhand from his lead hand as he dips his head to his rear left
When you draw out his leadhook counter, his hands are low and his head is high, he is there to be hit with the rear hand over the top (dober landed this hard)
Bro is very beatable and mid
