The UFC’s welterweight division has long been one of the best, most exciting and enthralling divisions in all of the UFC. The Octagon’s 170 pounds division is extremely stacked and has plenty of killers walking around creating upsets and becoming stars with each passing UFC event. One such fighter is Santiago Ponzinibbio and he is now all set to face off against the former UFC welterweight champion Robbie Lawler.
It should be noted that Santiago is currently ranked seventh in the UFC welterweight rankings, while Lawler is currently ranked 15th in the official UFC rankings.
While Santiago is on a roll and has been stacking up victories, since his last loss he has had a winning streak of 7 wins. On the other hand, Lawler is on a downhill and has lost his last three fights. While there is no official confirmation from the UFC yet, it is widely being reported that the duo will face each other in the main card of UFC 245.
