Ex-trainer who ambushed Matt Brown at UFC 198 gloats: Now we're even!

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) welterweight Matt Brown has a long and bizarre history with his former Brazilian jiu-jitsu coach Rodrigo Botti, starting with an argument that turned violent way back in early 2015 at the Ohio Combat Club in Columbus, Ohio.

Botti claims Brown and his boys beat the shit out of him and ruined his combat sports career. So, when he learned "The Immortal" was in town for UFC 198, which took place last weekend in Curitiba, Brazil, he blew a gasket and went to exact his revenge.

Now, what's done is done, according to Botti's conversation with MMA Fighting.
