MMARated.com has learned that a light heavyweight bout between Wanderlei Silva and Quinton "Rampage" Jackson has been offered to both fighters for UFC 91 on November 15th and is very close to being finalized.

The addition of Silva vs. Jackson to a UFC 91 card that is already headlined by Randy Couture vs. Brock Lesnar for the UFC heavyweight title would put this pay-per-view in position to be the highest-grossing PPV in UFC history. Currently, UFC 66 holds that distinction since that event - headlined by a rematch between Chuck Liddell and Tito Ortiz - grossed $5,397,300 in live gate revenue and just over a million in pay-per-view buys.

This would be the third meeting between Silva and Jackson. "The Axe Murderer" holds two wins over Jackson while they were members of the PRIDE Fighting Championships in 2003 and 2004.

Silva was last seen defeating Keith Jardine in devastating fashion at UFC 84 while I'm not quite sure what Jackson has been up to lately. If anyone out there knows, please let us know.
