His forward pressure, clinch elbows, and body strikes are reflected in an 82 Boxing and 84 Durability.
In May 2014 in Cincinnati, Brown stopped Erick Silva in a three-round brawl to extend his winning streak to seven, earning a title-eliminator main event against Robbie Lawler and a matchup with Johny Hendricks. In July 2015, he submitted Tim Means with a guillotine choke in Las Vegas. His chin and clinch game anchor his 84 Boxing and 86 Durability.
