Did matt brown not say...

that he was going back up to 185 pounds for his next fight?

Whoops, you are correct.

Fixed.

The UFC website says it’ll be at welterweight, but it would make sense for Brown to move up. Although, it would also make sense for Attonito to drop down.

Wasn't Brown cut?

I remember being disappointed by the news, but I understood why that had. Did they call him back up or am I remembering wrong?

No, MMA Live mistakenly reported Brown's release,

following the Foster loss, but Helwani later confirmed with Dana that he was being given another fight.

Fantastic

I’ve always been a fan of Luke’s doppelganger, though I’m aware that he’ll never be a title contender or game changer. Hopefully he pulls off this fight with an exciting win.
