Legendary Brazilian and former UFC champion Anderson Silva will meet rising middleweight Jared Cannonier in the co-main event.
The fight has gotten some flack in the media for not having a real backstory. But the 44-year-old great wanted to fight in Rio de Janeiro at least one more time due to his career winding down.
