It’s been more than a year since the UFC touched down in San Jose, and on Saturday, the promotion arguably is bringing its most exciting headliner since big FOX jumped into the octagon in late 2011. You could say past headliners brought equally intriguing matchups of skill, but none of them promise the violence so ingrained in the fighting styles of welterweights Robbie Lawler and Matt Brown , who top the network-televised UFC on FOX 12 event on Saturday. It’s a fine fight for the UFC’s return to NorCal. The most recent time the UFC touched down in San Jose, it was in April 2013 for UFC on FOX 7, and the arena was still known as HP Pavilion, a symbol among hardcore MMA fans as the home of Strikeforce. By then, the promotion had been shuttered for four months.
