5 Things We Learned From UFC 181

1. 2015 Is Shaping Up To Be A Monumental Year For UFC

The results of UFC 181 augments the stellar line up UFC has planned for 2015. Travis Brown€™s victory puts him in line for a heavyweight title shot if he decides to wait for Cain Velasquez and Fabricio Werdum to finish their business. Robbie Lawler€™s welterweight title win promises either a rematch with Rory McDonald or a trilogy bout with Johny Hendricks. Raquel Pennington€™s last second submission victory over Ashlee Evans-Smith will pay dividends towards a fight with Ronda Rousey. UFC has 45 events planned for next year which is almost one show a week. If the injury bug has finally run its course, new stars and big fights could make 2015 a year we won€™t soon forget.
