Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) will send a pair of heavyweight titans into battle when Roy Nelson battles Antonio Silva at the upcoming UFC Fight Night 95 mixed martial arts (MMA) event on FOX Sports 1, now official for Sept. 24, 2016 inside Ginasio Nislon Nelson in Brasilia, Brazil.
It should be noted these two are a combined 3-11-1 over the past three years.
Nelson (21-13) is coming off a split-decision loss to fellow 265-pound power puncher Derrick Lewis at UFC Fight Night 90. Prior to that, the 40-year-old "Big Country" outpointed Jared Rosholt at UFC Fight Night 82 to snap a dreadful three-fight losing streak.
