Robbie Lawler (pictured) vs. Carlos Condit: Take Two. After a thumb injury forced welterweight champion Lawler to postpone his UFC 193 matchup against Condit, the shootout has now been shifted to UFC 195.
Fox Sports 1 reported the news late Thursday night.
Condit has dropped three of his last five, but just TKO’d Thiago Alves in May to help right the ship, and apparently earn next dibs status.
Lawler, meanwhile, has rattled off four consecutive victories, including this month’s instant classic TKO over Rory MacDonald at UFC 189. The W marked Lawler’s first title defense.
The January 2 event will once again feature a pair of title tilts.
