A few close shaves for Matt Brown in Brazil…

It was a pretty sub standard weekend in the life of Matt Brown, but surprisingly his loss to Demian Maia was at the bottom of the list of things that sucked in Brazil for ‘The Immortal.’ The strange events of the UFC 198 fight weekend for the entertaining welterweight slugger started before he’d even stepped foot in the octagon. Brown had flipped off the crowd at the UFC 198 weigh ins, instantly making himself some 15,000 Brazilian enemies as his hit the scales with his back turned to them. Apparently they didn’t take kindly to this gesture, and the drama spilled over in to the arena on fight night.

During his UFC 198 walkout, Matt Brown was swiped at, grabbed, and even struck by one angry fan, forcing ‘The Immortal’ to throw a punch before he’d even made it to the octagon. Check out the video of that crazy moment:

Well it wasn’t the end of the world for Brown, perhaps a slightly poor timed annoyance on a night already filled with pressure, but he remained relatively unscathed. After being dominated and submitted by Demian Maia inside three rounds, ‘The Immortal’ was then attacked the following day by his former coach Rodrigo Botti…

Matt Brown is having one hell of a time in Brazil…

It’s been a very rough weekend for Matt Brown, after coming in to UFC 198 with some high hopes for the future. Demian Maia was the opponent for ‘The Immortal,’ and a win could easily have thrust Brown back in to the title picture, especially as he was fighting the talented jiu-jitsu specialist in his own backyard of Brazil. As it turned out, Brown appears to have seen a lot more action than just in the octagon.

Before even stepping in to the fight with Maia, Brown was mobbed by crazed fans during his UFC 198 walkout. On the way to the octagon angry fans swung, grabbed and yelled at Brown, with one even hitting the welterweight contender. But the story only got tougher for Matt Brown, as he ended up losing by third-round submission.

The entertaining striker clearly angered fans during the UFC 198 weigh-ins, standing on the scales with his back to the 15,000 strong Brazilian crowd and flipping them off as the stepped away. And still the story gets stranger and more controversial, as news has merged that Brown’s ex-coach Rodrigo Botti assaulted the UFC welterweight in a hotel lobby the day after the event.

Here is the video of Botti being caught by members of Brown’s team and geting a few punches and soccer kicks thrown his way.
How nuts was that?

UFC commentator and light-heavyweight veteran Brian Stann confirmed the situation on Twitter:

Random fan runs into hotel, hits Matt Brown, and runs. Matt’s friend catches him. Wow

Had nothing to do w/ Brazil, old grudge, no one knew until all ended @LeisterBowling explained it https://t.co/1CkpJhboKJ

What Stann was eluding to is that the man with a grudge turns out to be Rodrigo Botti, Brown’s former BJJ coach who accused ‘The Immortal’ of assaulting him during a business negotiation a while back.

Unfortunately for Botti, there’ll likely be a ton of witnesses in this scenario who tell a very different tale.

We’ll keep you updated to this story as it evolves.
