An unexpected headliner of former UFC fighters has been added to Jorge Masvidal’s bare knuckle MMA promotion, Gamebred FC.
According to ‘Gamebred’ himself, who broke the news during Ariel Helwani’s MMA Hour, former UFC heavyweight contender Antonio ‘Bigfoot’ Silva and fellow UFC vet and PFL contender Alex Nicholson will face each other on September 11.
Currently on a six-fight losing streak, five of them by knockout, Silva (19-13-1 NC) will look for his first win since a TKO victory over Soa Palelei, back in August 2015. Meanwhile, the 41-year-old lost to Mark Hunt, Stefan Struve, Roy Nelson, Vitaly Minakov, Ivan Shtyrkov and Quentin Domingos.
