Travis Browne Wants Fight With Ben Rothwell Next

By Chris Taylor - July 9, 2015

Travis Browne WINS
UFC heavyweight contender Travis “Hapa” Browne (17-3 MMA) is looking to get back on track, this after suffering a TKO loss to Andrei Arlovski at May’s UFC 187 event in Las Vegas.

According to a report on UFC Tonight, the Hawaiian would like to face “Big” Ben Rothwell in his next octagon appearance. Browne’s manager John Fosco told MMAFighting’s Ariel Helwani that the Browne camp remembers when Rothwell had called him out a few fights ago.

Prior to his loss to Arlovski, “Hapa” had earned a first-round TKO victory over Brendan Schaub at December’s UFC 181 event.

Meanwhile, Ben Rothwell (35-9 MMA) is currently riding a three-fight win streak, which includes victories over Alistair Overeem, Brandon Vera and most recently Matt Mitrione.
