An intriguing welterweight bout was just officially added to the upcoming UFC Norfolk card, in February. Per MMA Fighting, seasoned veteran Alex Oliveira will take on submission specialist Mickey Gall in a fight where ‘Cowboy’ could be fighting for his contract.
Currently on a three-fight losing skid, Alex Oliveira (19-8-1-2 NC) could be cut if he doesn’t get past Gall. In his previous outings, the 31-year-old dropped unanimous decisions to both Mike Perry and Nicolas Dalby, while being tapped out to Gunnar Nelson before both defeats. Cowboy’s last win dates back to September 2018, a TKO win over Carlo Pedersoli Jr.
