Matt Brown to Fight Tarec Saffiedine at UFC 207

Hot on the heels of the reported bout between Brandon Thatch and Sabah Homasi, UFC 207 is set to be infused with a pivotal welterweight showdown between Matt Brown and Tarec Saffiedine.

Ultimate Fighting Championship officials have not formally announced the matchup, which was first reported by MMAFighting.com.

Brown, one of the most beloved brawlers on the entire UFC roster, has made a career of walking through hell and scoring highlight reel knockouts. But “The Immortal” has dropped two in a row and four of his last five fights overall and is in desperate need of a victory.
