MILWAUKEE – It’s not exactly water under the bridge for Ben Askren in regards to his relationship with Dana White. But at the same time, the former ONE Championship and Bellator champion is pretty clear that he’s only coming to the UFC to do one thing: fight, and win. Askren announced his retirement in 2017, but when the opportunity to come to the UFC arose earlier this fall through a unique “trade” between that promotion and ONE Championship for Demetrious Johnson, Askren (18-0 MMA, 0-0 UFC) decided to return. He’s booked to take on former UFC welterweight champ Robbie Lawler (28-12 MMA, 13-6 UFC) at UFC 235 in March.
