In just over a month, Matt Brown and Robbie Lawler will face off with a shot at the welterweight title on the line. Both of these guys are outstanding fighters, and each has had a significant career resurgence in the past two years.
Lawler came over from Strikeforce and dropped to the welterweight division. He fought for the title, and although he lost, he has quickly risen to No. 1 in the division.
In 2011, Matt Brown’s UFC career was in trouble. He lost four out of five, all by submission and all around the middle of the fight.
Then, Brown decided to just start knocking everyone out, and he has now won seven fights in a row, including six by (T)KO.
These two are going to put on a show come July 26, so let’s take a look at who has the edge.
