Robbie Lawler to defend his welterweight championship against Carlos Condit at UFC 193

It was reported by Ariel Helwani on Wednesday’s episode of UFC Tonight that the UFC is looking to book their UFC 193 event in a 55,000 seat stadium, but have gone back and forth on if they want to book it in a stadium or in an arena when they go to Melbourne.

Thus the reason a venue has not been announced yet

Also, that event was rumored to be headlined by a welterweight championship bout between champ Robbie Lawler and Carlos Condit.

Helwani confirmed that the championship fight would indeed be the main event.

Lawler is coming off a sick fight with Rory MacDonald at UFC 189, which he won by TKO while Carlos is 2-2 in his last four fights and is coming off a second-round TKO (referee stoppage) win over Thiago Alves at UFC Fight Night 67.

UFC 193 takes place on November 14th, 2015.
