Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Lightweight athletes Will Brooks and Alex Oliveira will collide this Saturday (Oct. 1, 2016) at UFC Fight Night 96 inside Moda Center in Portland, Oregon.
Like current kingpin Eddie Alvarez, Brooks was a dominant champion in Bellator MMA’s Lightweight division. Unlike the champion, Brooks has received match ups in the middle of the division and is being forced to work his way up. "Ill Will" needs to impress in this bout if he’s to rise through the ranks quickly. On the other hand, this is Oliveira’s big opportunity to move from action fighter to potential contender.
