Rory MacDonald vs. Robbie Lawler official for UFC 167 on Nov. 16 in Las Vegas

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) has added a welterweight scrap to its upcoming “Sin City” return as top Canadian and division contender Rory MacDonald battles UFC legend Robbie Lawler.

MacDonald’s team mate Georges St-Pierre will also be on the card headlining against Johny Hendricks for St-Pierre’s 170-pound strap.

MacDonald (15-1) just disposed of Jake Ellenberger at UFC on FOX 8 last month in Seattle.  His quest to fight for the welterweight gold is around the corner, especially with a win over the top tier Robbie Lawler.

Lawler (21-9) scored a second-round TKO victory over Bobby Voelker.  He has dropped from 185-pounds and is looking to cause a stint in the welterweight division.
