The UFC travels to Minnesota for the third time in its history with UFC on ESPN 3 in June, and the official poster for the card has been released.
The event, which takes place June 29 at Target Center in Minneapolis and is expected to have a main card on ESPN, is headlined by a high-stakes welterweight rematch. Former champions Tyron Woodley (19-4-1 MMA, 9-3-1 UFC) and Robbie Lawler (28-13 MMA, 13-7 UFC) will attempt to reassert themselves in the title picture when they clash in the main event.
Woodley defeated Lawler by first-round knockout at UFC 201 in July 2016 to claim the UFC’s 170-pound belt. Both men have experienced much since then but will have the chance to achieve another high point on the UFC’s first card in Minneapolis since 2012.
The rematch is featured on the official event poster, which can be seen below (via Twitter):
