Knockout artist, Alex Oliveira, takes on fellow Muay Thai specialist, Donald Cerrone, in a battle of "Cowboys" this Sunday (Feb. 21, 2016) at UFC Fight Night 83 inside Consol Energy Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Oliveira has been in UFC for less than one year, but he's already proven himself a game and talented fighter. This is just his fifth fight inside the Octagon, and all but one of those have been on short-notice.
Here, it can all pay off, as this is a major step up in exposure for the Brazilian. If he manages to defeat Cerrone -- whose ranked very highly in Oliveira's home weight class of 155 pounds -- he'll suddenly have a great deal of momentum behind him.
