The countdown to UFC 195: “Lawler vs. Condit” is almost complete.
In just a few short hours, the mixed martial arts (MMA) action will erupt inside MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nev., featuring the mouth-watering clash between division champion, Robbie Lawler, and former 170-pound interim kingpin, Carlos Condit, in the pay-per-view (PPV) main event.
The Lawler vs. Condit headliner is scheduled for five rounds of five minutes each. Both fighters are ferocious finishers, boasting insane rates that will more than likely ensure the match does not head to the unpredictable scorecards of the ringside judges.
It’s simply an awesome pairing, one that will undoubtedly kick off the New Year with a bang.
The PPV co-main event is a pivotal Heavyweight showdown between top-ranked contenders Andrei Arlovski (No. 2) and Stipe Miocic (No. 3). The winner of the match will more than likely earn the next opportunity to challenge for the world title after Fabricio Werdum and Cain Velasquez settle their score later this year.
That’s not all.
In addition to the five-fight PPV main card, there is also a seven-fight “Prelims” undercard that will be split between UFC’s online digital network, “Fight Pass,” and its television broadcasting partner, Fox Sports 1.
