When Thiago Alves and Carlos Condit step into the cage at UFC Fight Night 67, fellow welterweight Matt Brown will be watching with great interest.

Brown (19-13 MMA, 12-7 UFC), who already has a matchup set for UFC 189 against Tim Means (24-6-1 MMA, 6-3 UFC), expressed interest in the winner during the Great MMA Debate podcast.

“I’m hoping I get the winner of that fight,” Brown said. “That’s what I would like. An ideal situation, I beat Means and I get the winner of that fight. I’m picking Condit to win.”

UFC Fight Night 67 tales place Saturday at Goiania Arena in Goiania, Goias, Brazil. The main card airs on FOX Sports 1 following prelims on the same channel and UFC Fight Pass. Alves (21-9 MMA, 13-6 UFC) vs. Condit (29-8 MMA, 6-4 UFC) will serve as the evening’s main event.

Brown has dropped two consecutive fights, losing unanimous decisions to both Robbie Lawler and Johny Hendricks. Those losses came on the heels of a seven-fight winning streak for “The Immortal,” a run which had him on the cusp of a once unthinkable title shot.

With Brown vs. Means and Alves vs. Condit as two of the biggest welterweight bouts on the UFC slate aside from the UFC 189 title fight between Rory MacDonald and champion Robbie Lawler, it would appear that Brown is looking to lay out a path to re-establish himself as potential title challenger.

Brown is currently ranked No. 6 in the latest USA TODAY Sports/MMAjunkie MMA welterweight rankings.
