A pair of lightweight bouts have been added to the UFC Fight Night 131 bill, as Gleison Tibau will face Desmond Green, while Nik Lentz will square off against Leonardo Santos.

The Las Vegas-based promotion announced the contests on Monday. UFC Fight Night 131 takes place on June 1 at Adirondack Bank Center in Utica, N.Y., and is headlined by a bantamweight tilt between Jimmie Rivera and Marlon Moraes. The card airs on Fox Sports 1 following early prelims on UFC Fight Pass.

Tibau is currently on a three-bout skid, including a 57-second knockout loss to Islam Makhachev in his most recent outing at UFC 220 on Jan.
