Broadcast: Pay-Per-View

Michael Bisping vs. Rashad Evans confirmed -
UFC 78

The UFC’s return to New Jersey on Saturday, November 17th, for the first time in over two years. Featuring the first ever battle between Ultimate Fighter winners, Rashad Evans and Michael Bisping, along with an explosive matchup between heavy handed Houston Alexander will take on undefeated Chute boxe fighter Thiago Silva at UFC 78.

This showdown, which features two up-and-coming undefeated fighters, is the main event of the evening.

Two of the best from The Ultimate Fighter will meet, as season two winner “Sugar” Rashad Evans (15-0-1) battles season three winner Michael “The Count” Bisping (15-0) in a battle that will not only leave one of these unbeatens with a loss on his record, but it will validate the victor as the future of the light heavyweight division.

Evans is itching to get back in the cage after fighting to a draw with Ortiz at UFC 73: “Stacked” on July 7. He, too, was supposed to rematch Ortiz right away but things behind the scenes clearly did not go as planned.

Houson Alexander, the current UFC knock out king will certainly want to keep his win streak alive with a quick defeat of Thiago Silva, becasue the winner of this bout would likely be given a title shot against UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton Rampage Jackson early next spring.

Silva is 11-0 and considered one of the most promising young light heavyweights in the division. Meanwhile, despite being 35, Alexander is viewed by many as a breakout star coming off the heels of two devastating first round TKOs in his first two UFC fights.
