According to MMA Fighting, Botti attacked Brown in the hotel lobby and the MMA fighter's friend chased him down, leading to the brawl above.
Not a random fan who attacked Matt. It was Rodrigo Botti who is an absolute psycho.

The UFC has responded to the incident, via MMA Junkie:
"UFC is aware that welterweight contender Matt Brown was allegedly attacked today by a former acquaintance at the UFC 198 host hotel in Curitiba, Brazil," the statement read. "UFC has been in communication with local authorities to gather more information relative to the alleged attack, and is reviewing security measures at the hotel.
"Fortunately, Brown was uninjured in the situation and will return home to the United States later today as planned."
Brown was previously accused of assault by Botti, but there wasn't enough evidence to prove it.
