Thiago Silva debuts in the UFC next week!

LHW Chutebox prospect Thiago Silva debuts in the UFC next week at UFC71! Thiago is a beast, holding a 9-0 record. He faces James Irvin, in what will more than likely be a slugfest. It's great to see Chutebox in the UFC, maybe even Wand will be in his corner!

Silva via KO R2

This will be a great fight. I'm interested in seeing how well Silva will do against some top competition!?

Hopefully Thiago will take down Irvin and go for the sub.

Wandy in the corner at a ufc event where chuck and page are headlining, could be interesting. thiago silva looks like he could make some waves in the ufc, undefeated and coming from a great camp. Snadman likes to bang tho. and oh yeah watch out for the flying knee.

Thanks for the update, this fight should be interesting.

Wanderlei as a corner man when the headlining fight is Chuck vs Rampage would be insane.

I -really- hope Wand is in his corner.

I just wish we could see some of those Chuteboxe stomps and soccer kicks...
