Depends which Vera shows up but I mostly have Thiago Silva winning this.

Yeah everyone knows how much of a Vera fan I USED to be (epic fan), now I am just a regular plain ol' fan! I do love Thiago though, when I met him he was cool as fuck (as you guys can tell, when fighters are totally cool in person I become 10x bigger fan  )
So, I gotta go with Thiago, I think he actually has a shot in the LHW division whilst Vera is done |

God I hope Silva completely WRECKS Vera. I can not stand Brandon Vera at all.

I just cannot wait to see Thiago Silva back in the octagon. It's been too long.

This is probably my personal favourite matchup so far this whole entire year and considering how much I love both fighters, I'm gonna go with a surefire FOTN on this one.
Personally, if Thiago's healthy it should be an insanely close fight, but if he's still banged up I think that Vera's got enough outside striking and wrestling to win on points. If it's an even fight tho, I'm thinking throwdown of the century.
