UFC management was very impressed with Wanderlei's performance at UFC 84, stating that "Wanderlei is back". It has also been reported and rumored that Wanderlei Silva's next fight could be with Rashad Evans, and then a title shot with the winner of Forrest/Rampage. Silva's camp was unable to be reached, however we will keep you fans updated as soon as the news and confirmation comes out.
I have not really been impressed with Evans so I don't think Silva would have much of a problem with him IMO.

Actually Evans is like a really shitty matchup for Silva...Silva has pretty terrible TDD, however this will either be a quick KO for Silva or a unaminious Decision for Evans.

If your not impressed with any part of Evans game you have extremely limited exposure to Rashads fights. Evans presents a lot of problems for Wand if he doesn't KO him out of the gate like Suffy said. Outside of that hes one of, if not the best up and comer of the bunch in the LHW Divsion with good stand up and solid wrestling, I wonder how Dan Henderson beat silva?. His only down fall is conditioning which has only been a problem in 2 or 3 of his fights that have went the distance.

Oh don't get me wrong, Rashad has put on some impressive performances. Not many expected him to do as well against Tito as he did. If he can take Sliva to the ground it could mean bad news for him. I don't think he wants to try and compete with Silva's stand up though.

I think Titos and Bisping fights while recent are really indicative of how effective his fighting style is, In all the fights I've watched of Evans I don't think I've ever seen him gas in the second round like he did in those two fights.
I'd be shocked if he comes in to this fight and gases in the same fashion, especially when its his first truely Marquee fight and his skill set matches up with Wanderleis so well.
