Undefeated light heavyweight Thiago Silva (9-0 MMA, 0-0 UFC) will makes his UFC debut at next month?s UFC 71 in Las Vegas, according to the latest rumor posted by MMAWeekly.com.

His opponent is not yet known, though fellow 205-pounder Keith Jardine is also on the card and in desperate need of an opponent. (Check out last week?s story for the as-of-yet unsuccessful search.)

The news of Silva?s Octagon debut was first reported by tateme.com late last week.

Silva, a Brazilian who trains with Chute Box, turned pro in September 2005 and has finished seven of his nine fights by knockout. He is the Fury Fighting Championships Grand Prix Champion for the 93-kilogram (205-pound) and lighter division. His most victory was over Tatsuya Mizuno (KO via soccer kick) in a February 2007 Pancrase event.

Based on video footage of his past few fights, Silva is an obvious hard hitter who looks very comfortable on his feet. He has a solid sprawl, good footwork and exceptional balance while delivering kicks.

UFC 71 takes place May 26 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

The latest rumored fight card includes:

Chuck Liddell vs. Quinton Jackson (light heavyweight championship)

Keith Jardine vs. TBA

Karo Parisyan vs. Josh Burkman

Chris Leben vs. Kalib Starnes

Eric Schafer vs. Sean Salmon

Ivan Salaverry vs. Terry Martin

Thiago Silva vs. TBA

So, we've brushed aside the UK and it's back to Las Vegas...

I really hope this one lives up to it's billing! If it does, it's gonna be huge! Rampage is the only guy left who Chuck hasn't avenged a loss against. Question is, can he beat him, or will Quinton "whup Chuck's ass"?

I haven't seen any Jackson fights since he last beat Chuck, but with the confidence Chuck has going into this fight, I wouldn't be surprised if we see Chuck win, but only just...

I think he'll beat Jackson. Jackson hasn't looked that good. Liddell is going to have to take on the dream fights soon, let's get this one out of the way and bring on the fun fights. Wanderlei, CroCop, Fedor... he wants to fight them all. It'll be interesting if he does do CroCop/Fedor since he'll go up a weight class. I think Fedor will make him wish he didn't.

how "legit" is UFC. I always though it was very legit, but, then my friend was telling me that there was going to be a pay-per-view where the owner of UFC was going to fight someone, and it brought back memories of WWF.

UFC is pretty legit....the Ortiz vs White thing is what you are on about I am sure was a bad blood thing where they don't get on so offered to take each other on in a boxing match but it didnt materialise because Ortiz didn't turn up...

Dana White used to be a semi-pro boxer, who was training to go pro, but was also involved in managing many fighters. As you can see, his drive led him to where he currently is a successful president for a major MMA fighting organization. Good choice. Tito Ortiz put into his latest contract a clause to fight White as a "get the bad blood out" fight. It was supposed to be a non-sanctioned fight in a gym as a "somewhat fun" way to get the stress over their bad relationship in the past. It got blown up because Tito started talking about how he was going to beat White's ass in the fight, mostly as a promotional thing to hype it up. White didn't think it was a huge promotional thing, it turned into one, and the Nevada Fight Commission got wind of it, then it became a huge deal. So... I would say Tito got a brain and decided he'd lose regardless. He'd either beat the UFC president's ass and lose some fanbase possibly, or LOSE to White, and look like a pansy. It never happened, and the Nevada Fight Commission got ****ed Tito didn't show up for the weigh-in.

It wasn't much of a WWF thing, it was actually a real boxing fight. Tito just got smart and realized the Dana was actually training very hard for the fight, and looking 100x better than he originally looked when the training began.

    • He has planned to file a lawsuit in small claims court so it'll only be a $1000 lesson assuming he wins. That's likely a fraction of what Samsung spends on toilet paper on a daily basis.
    • Windows Server gets DNS over HTTPS (DoH) support by Usama Jawad For the past few months, Microsoft has been previewing DNS over HTTPS (DoH) for Windows DNS Server, touting it as a foundational upgrade for zero-trust enterprise networks. It essentially introduces encrypted, authenticated DNS for the networks rather than transmitting DNS traffic in clear. Now, the company has introduced the general availability (GA) of this feature. The GA of DoH encourages organizations to deploy the solution in production environments without implementing a new client-to-resolver architecture. DoH helps improve the overall security of the network and reduces the risk of spoofing due to its zero-trust design. This is a significant change because pretty much every interaction with the network requires interfacing with DNS. DoH offers several advantages over standard DNS traffic, such as encryption using HTTPS, preventing unauthorized inspection, man-in-the-middle attacks, and traffic analysis. Since it leverages TLS certificates so that clients can verify the identity of the DNS server, it prevents spoofing through this authentication mechanism. Additionally, it's built on the DoH standard defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), which means that it should work with modern RFC 8484-compliant clients. Finally, it integrates into the existing network architecture seamlessly and can even run in parallel with standard DNS, so that customers can migrate to the new technology at their own pace. Microsoft says that in the past few months of preview, DoH has become more stable, and customers can confidently deploy it in production environments with proper guidance. Microsoft has emphasized that migrating to DoH is necessary for organizations that are moving toward zero-trust DNS solutions. Windows clients already support DoH, but the latest availability on Windows Server provides encrypted DNS to all endpoints. The company has also mentioned that "while this release focuses on encrypting client-to-resolver communication, support for encrypted communication between Windows DNS Server and upstream DNS resolvers is planned for a future update." You can follow Microsoft's guidance to deploy DoH here, but keep in mind that you need a Windows Server 2025 installation with the latest Patch Tuesday updates installed.
