According to this Brazillian website, Big Nog has recently revealed that fellow Brazillian Antonio "Big Foot" Silva will be joining the UFC and will face Cain Velasquez for his first bout.

Big Foot, who's last fight resulted in a KO defeat at the hands of Chris Cormier (Strikeforce), has since undergone surgery and will be ready to face Velasquez in a rumoured April event. Big Foot who has a respectable 16-3-0, including a stoppage win against Fedor, will have the size advantage over Velasquez who recently lost to Junior Dos Santos in the featured Fox Sports event.
