Dana might stay out of Canada for a couple of years after this one.

I think this will be a great fight! Silva's wildness and Pennington's pressure should hopefully make a fun recipe

@Amettxpc 
For someone that prides himself for his fight IQ, I thought Malott made a lot of bad mistakes against Magny. With that being said, Magny took good advantage of it and I respect him for beating yet again another fighter with a lot of hype

I've managed to sc**** gold out of a dung heap tonight so I'll be in a good mood even if we get 2x 25min of boring.
