LAS VEGAS – Randy Brown, for a proverbial minute, thought he had a dance date with Carlos Prates. It was, he surmised, a chance to see what all the hype was about.
The way Brown told it Wednesday at a media day for UFC 310, he was asked if he wanted to fight Prates, and he said yes – when he thought the fight was Saturday. When he was told it would be three weeks ago in New York, he passed on the date, but wanted the matchup.
Then Prates, Brown said, passed on a meeting for Saturday, and that was that.
