The UFC’s busy spring schedule continues to roll-out, and recently the promotion held a media event for its March 14th card in Brasilia.
Lee vs. Oliveira
The card’s headliner will feature Kevin Lee (18-5) taking on surging lightweight contender, Charles Oliveira (28-8). Lee is looking to build on his vicious, knockout win over Gregor Gillespie in November, which snapped a two-fight losing streak.
Oliveira, on the other hand, hasn’t taken an ‘L’ in a while. “Do Bronx” has won six straight fights and is coming off a KO of Jared Gordon in November.
As you can see by watching the clip below, the contenders had quite the staredown at the event.
