Will Brooks vs. Charles Oliveira added to UFC 210 in Buffalo

A lightweight showdown between Will Brooks and Charles Oliveira has been added to UFC 210 in Buffalo on April 8.

The new fight was announced during the UFC 208 pre-fight show on FS1.

Brooks will return to action after suffering his first loss in 10 fights following a TKO suffered to Alex Oliveira at UFC Fight Night in Portland last October.

Prior to that, Brooks had put together a nine-fight win streak, including his UFC debut where he defeated Ross Pearson.

Now Brooks will return in April when he faces Oliveira, who is looking to bounce back following back-to-back losses to Anthony Pettis and Ricardo Lamas.

Oliveira also returns to lightweight where he previously competed in the UFC prior to a move down to featherweight that ultimately resulted in the Brazilian fighter missing weight several times.

Now he moves back to 155 pounds where he faces Brooks in April.

Light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier will meet Anthony "Rumble" Johnson in the main event at UFC 210 in Buffalo.
