Oliveira and Lentz first fought at UFC on Versus 4 in 2011, when the Brazilian had his submission victory overturned to a no-contest by the athletic commission due to an illegal knee. Three years later, now as featherweights, "Do Bronx" and "The Carnie" were matched up against each other one more time, but Oliveira has fallen ill hours before UFC Fight Night 50.
Exactly 1435 days after their first encounter, Oliveira and Lentz will meet in the co-main event of UFC Fight Night 67 in Goiania, Brazil, on Saturday night. "Do Bronx" will use his long history with Lentz as extra motivation to enter the Octagon and defeat him.
