UFC FN 78 Loses Matt Brown to Injury

Matt Brown

By FCF Staff

UFC Fight Night 78 has lost one of its biggest names a few weeks out from the event, as the promotion has confirmed Matt Brown has withdrawn due to injury.

Brown was scheduled to fight fellow welterweight contender Kelvin Gastelum at the November 21st card. No details regarding Brown’s injury were disclosed.

The announcement also says the UFC is seeking a replacement opponent for Gastelum.

Brown (20-13) is coming off a submission win over Tim Means this past July, after being decisioned by Robbie Lawler and Johny Hendricks in consecutive bouts.

UFC FN 78 will be hosted by Monterrey, Mexico.
