The former Michigan State
University wrestler has won 18 of his 20 pro fights,
including a draw against former UFC light heavyweight
champion Tito Ortiz. A skilled grappler that has tremendous
knockout power, Evans will need all of his well-rounded
abilities when he takes on Thiago Silva, the man who knocked
out his teammate and training partner Keith Jardine.

Coming from a great victory over Keith
Jardine, the American Top Team Thiago Silva will face the
former champion Rashad Evans. Like Evans, Silva was smashing
his way through the ranks of light heavyweight and was one
fight away from a title shot until Machida stiffened him at
UFC 94 last January.
Joining Evans vs. Silva on the main card are
Tyson Griffin (14-2 MMA, 7-2 UFC) vs. Jim Miller (15-2 MMA,
4-1 UFC), Paul Paley (22-8-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC) vs. Carlos Condit

vs. Gabriel Gonzaga (11-4 MMA, 7-3 UFC).
