Light heavyweights Thiago Silva and Brandon “The Truth” Vera have verbally agreed to wrap up some unfinished business this May in Fairfax, VA. “Their last fight ended up a no contest and both guys are out to prove that they are the better man,” said UFC president Dana White.

Verbal agreements are also in for a middleweight matchup at that event between “Filthy” Tom Lawlor and Jason “The Athlete” MacDonald.

The bouts will take place at the just-announced third UFC on FX event, tentatively scheduled for May 15 in Fairfax, Virginia. More details including venue information and ticket on-sales will be announced in coming weeks.
