Fiveouncesofpain.com has the scoop on this heavyweight title tilt: Monte Cox confirmed to FiveOuncesOfPain.com on Tuesday afternoon that a signed contract was indeed FAX'ed back to EliteXC officials on Monday evening. A verbal agreement for Antonio Silva to fight former UFC heavyweight title challenger Justin Eilers during EliteXC's second-ever CBS telecast on July 26 has been secured. EliteXC Vice President Jared Shaw revealed the news when contacted by FiveOuncesOfPain.com earlier this afternoon. Five Ounces of Pain later contacted Eilers' manager, Monte Cox, who indicated that it is their intention to FAX a signed contract to EliteXC officials later today. It is still uncertain whether the Silva vs. Eilers fight will be for the vacant EliteXC heavyweight title, but Shaw indicated a belt will more than likely be at stake when the two square off.
