Longtime Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) veteran Nik Lentz is headed back to his old stomping grounds for his upcoming fight against Danny Castillo at the UFC on FOX 17 mixed martial arts (MMA) event on Dec. 19, 2015 inside Amway Center in Orlando, Florida.
UFC announced the lightweight booking on Wednesday.
Lentz (25-7-2, 1 NC) is coming off a submission loss to Charles Oliveira at UFC Fight Night 67 back in May. The defeat to "Do Bronx" left him with a respectable 4-2 record at 145 pounds, but why make a brutal weight cut if the grass isn't any greener on the other side?
