Report: Travis Browne Replaces Rothwell, Meets Werdum at UFC 203

Heavyweight contender Travis Browne has coveted a rematch with former world champion Fabricio Werdum ever since he lost to the Brazilian via decision back on the UFC on Fox 11 card two years ago. It looks like he’ll get his wish granted on Sep. 10 at UFC 203.

With Ben Rothwell having been removed from the pay-per-view event due to an injury, Browne has opted to step in on late notice to try and exact revenge on “Vai Cavalo.” MMAjunkie.com first reported the news; UFC officials have not yet officially announced the move.
