Mystery with Thiago Silva, he might have failed his drug test, but they are testing his 2nd sample. Innocent until proven guilty.

But in the meantime UFC has pulled him from his fight with Rampage.  Instead they decided to do Rampage vs Matt Hamill. Definitely not as interesting a fight as Rampage vs Thiago Silva.

Rampage vs Phil Davis would have been more interesting probably, but they are probably looking to protect and groom Phil Davis.

I've read mixed things. Rampage said he wanted to fight Rashad Evans, but now he's saying he wants to fight Hamill..? I don't really know, but I do hope the match is worth it. Rampage isn't exactly young and a higher profile fight would be best.

I think this is a good fight for Rampage and I believe Hamill will stand in the pocket and bang with Rampage for a little bit and then try and edge by with decision. I dont doubt that rampage will push the pace and try and KO Hamill but hamill does have a good stand up so It can go either way.

Hamill seems to surprise everyone he fights with his striking power. I can see Rampage being shocked initially, but nothing he hasn't seen before. I'm taking the underdog to win by getting a few takedowns and surviving the 3rd round.
