Anderson Silva's Return Bout Booked For UFC 198 In Brazil, Cyborg Possibly On The Show?
After what is technically his fourth consecutive fight without a win, former UFC Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva has been booked for his return to the cage.
Silva will take on fellow Middleweight Uriah Hall in Brazil at UFC 198. The event is headlined by a Fabricio Werdum vs. Stipe Miocic UFC Heavyweight Championship bout, which takes place on May 15 at Area de Baixada in Curitiba, Brazil.
If that weren't enough, the UFC is said to be looking to 'stack' the show, and according to UFC Tonight's Ariel Helwani, may end up putting Cris 'Cyborg" Justino on the show. Justino has said she will not cut to 135 pounds, so the fight would have to be at 140 or 145 pounds.
The show looks to be one of the biggest Brazilian cards in company history, as Ronaldo 'Jacare' Souza will also take on Vitor Belfort. Demian Maia vs. Matt Brown is also scheduled for the main card. Mauricio "Shogun" Rua, Antonio Rogerio Noguiera and Nate Marquardt are also booked to compete.
