my guess is they want Silva to fight as many different guys as they can with as impressive a background as possible. In Lietes hes fighting a bjj guy who would have a ground advantage and has won like 5 straight fights.

The reason its questionable to us is that other than Nate he hasn't fought any thats really any good.

Okami obviously is the most impressive guy at the weight class but his wins are mostly boring 3 rd affairs. I think likely if kang wins you will get Okami vs Kang for a title shot.

I dont know why but i think Kang could get Koed by belcher. So in that case it might end up being the winner of Gouviea vs marquardt that fights okami for a title shot. Dont count out Gouviea in either of those fights though.
