Brandon Vera to Fight Tim Sylvia

A pretty exciting match-up has been added to UFC 77: Hostile Territory. Former UFC Heavyweight Champion Tim Sylvia will square off against Brandon Vera, who's making his return to The Octagon.

Tim Sylvia last fought at UFC 68, where he was defeated and had his Heavyweight title taken away by Randy Couture.

Brandon Vera is making his long awaited return to The Octagon after a nearly 12-month hiatus, due to management and contract issues.

UFC 77: Hostile Territory is scheduled for October 20, 2007 at the U.S. Bank Arena in Cincinatti, Ohio. The main event features UFC Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva defending his title against Rich Franklin in a rematch.
