Matt Brown keeps on taking care of business inside the Octagon.
At UFC Fight Night 40, he overcame a slow start to finish Erick Silva with strikes in the third round. After he came back from near defeat, the bout epitomized Brown's career, which has seen him reach title contention only a few years after losing three fights in a row.
Now riding seven straight wins, he is closing in on the world's top welterweights. Was Saturday's victory over the up-and-coming Silva enough to vault "The Immortal" into the Top Five in the 170-pound rankings?
