Thiago Silva's Drug Test Still Processing, Evans Not Offered UFC 130 Bout

Filed under: UFC

Former UFC light heavyweight champ Rashad Evans has not been offered a fight with Quinton "Rampage" Jackson at UFC 130 in May, Evans' manager, Malki Kawa, told MMA Fighting on Wednesday.

After MMA Weekly reported earlier in the day that Jackson's original opponent for that event, Thiago Silva, had been forced off the card, rumors circulated that Evans could be tapped as a replacement on the May 28 fight card.

Those reports are premature, according to Evans' management. And yet, as of Wednesday afternoon there are still questions surrounding Silva's ability to participate in the bout.
