| Jon Fitch will draw one of the UFC's top young guns in his next outing.
The longtime welterweight contender is set to square off with Brazilian Erick Silva at UFC 153, MMA Fighting's Ariel Helwani has learned. Sources with knowledge of the situation confirmed the two had verbally agreed to the pairing. | |

| Solid test for Silva, I just hope Fitch avoids getting clipped early this time. |

- Actually, Rafael Feijao and Ronaldo Jacare are guys who fight well against wrestlers and, well, I I've been training with them. We have a good game to block wrestlers and it's been working. Minotouro Nogueira is bringing wrestlers from the United States to train with us and also be sparring too. Every time I train with them I feel it's easier to defend the takedowns because I'm doing the right defense, on the fence. It's been working out. Another thing is that wrestlers don't expect you to use Judo takedowns, so we're investing on that too. Don't be surprised if I take Jon Fitch down (laughs). We're training it a lot
Well, actually a win over Jon Fitch brings me closer to the belt. I'm sure that, right after this fight, after I beat him up. I'll figure on the top of the division. Even knowing there are people on the like I guess that after one, two more fights I really can fight for the title. http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2012/8/7/3225720/ufc-153-jon-fitch-vs-erick-silva-wrestling-title-ufc-news | |
