Brown began his UFC career as a cast member of The Ultimate Fighter Season 7: Jackson vs. Griffin. Brown would make it to the quarterfinals when he lost to Amir Sadollah. He would be on the UFC roster from 2008 on, and after a recent three fight losing streak capped by a knockout loss to Donald Cerrone UFC 206, Brown has decided to call it a career.
