If Rashad Evans gets his way, his post-Rampage-fight-that-never-happened fight will be against Tiago Silva. From MDS at FanHouse:
Who Does Evans Fight Now? Tiago Silva, That’s Whom
In an interview with FanHouse, Evans — the former UFC light heavyweight champion — said that while nothing is official, he thinks the Silva fight is the best option for himself and the UFC after Rampage decided he’d rather act than fight.
“Thiago Silva is a good fighter, I’d like to fight him and I think he wants to fight me,” Evans said. “When I saw him after he fought Keith Jardine, he kind of gave me a nasty look that I interpreted like he wanted to take me on, and I’d like that.”
“I think I match up really well with Thiago Silva,” Evans said. “He’s a great striker, and I love his focus. He’s going to be a challenge, and that’s the kind of fight I want.”
