Charles Oliveira faces Clay Guida at UFC 225

Charles Oliveira and Clay Guida are set to meet in a lightweight encounter at UFC 225. This comes after Bobby Green pulled out of the event.

The UFC announced the match-up earlier today.

Green was set to face Guida, but after it emerged he was out of the fight, Oliveira stepped in. UFC 225 takes place in 10 days.

Oliveira (22-8, 1NC) has competed under the UFC banner 19 times, compiling a record of 10-8 with one No Contest. After missing weight badly before his loss to Ricardo Lamas, the Brazilian moved back to lightweight, and submitted Will Brooks at UFC 210.
