UFC welterweight veteran Matt Brown believes Demian Maia is one of the toughest challenges of his career and is confident it will bring out the best in him at UFC 198.
'The Immortal' is an apt nick name for Matt Brown. The Ohio native has battled and conquered drug addiction in his personal life and has fought tooth and nail to make a name for himself in the UFC.
Currently ranked as the #8 welterweight in the world, Brown wasn't always regarded as one of the standout talents in the 170-pound division. In fact, the Ultimate Fighter season 7 competitor was almost cut from the UFC after dropping three straight in 2010.
