The UFC returns Saturday with its first pay-per-view broadcast since UFC 200‘s debacle earlier this month. “UFC 201: Lawler vs. Woodley” goes down inside Philips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia.
The card isn’t stellar overall, but the main event between welterweight champion Robbie Lawler (pictured) and American Top Team teammate Tyrone Woodley should be fire.
A strawweight contest with Rose Namajunas and Karolina Kowalkiewicz serves as the co-main event.
See what I mean about the depth of the lineup?
To help generate some buzz for the show, the UFC has released a “Countdown” episode.
