Kevin Lee will travel to Brazil to face rising lightweight Charles Oliveira in the main event of UFC Brasilia on March 14, multiple sources told MMA Fighting. Combate first reported the match-up.
Lee (18-5) is coming off a devastating head kick knockout of Gregor Gillespie in his return to lightweight in November, bouncing back to the winning column following welterweight defeats to Al Iaquinta and Rafael dos Anjos.
“The Motown Phenom” has fought once in Brazil, submitting Francisco Trinaldo with a rear-naked choke in March 2017.
