The UFC continues to make sure we see every fight twice

Oliveira beat Lentz up pretty bad when they last fought, but that said Lentz can still win this fight

There's probably no fighter I've done a total 180 on more than Nik Lentz. I hated the dude after his fight with Winner. But the guy seemed to really take the criticism to heart and work to change his game
to make the fans happy
, and he has been pretty successful doing it! I saw him fight Dunham live in Chicago, and not only was it a hell of a scrap, the dude was a warrior to the end...the doctor stopped it!
Then again, I also saw Olivera get a calf-slicer submission live in Chicago...I think the first (only?) ever in the UFC? He seems like a pretty good dude too...
But all in all, I'm going to have to cheer for Lentz, if only out of guilt over how much I hated his "LnP" performance against Winner.

This is a interesting fight. Nik has a tough grinding style that gives a lot of Bjj blackbelts problems, but Charles Oliveira is no ordinary blackbelt off his back, his demolition of Hioki at his own game is off the charts impressive.
The smart money is on a Nik Lentz decision but I wouldn't be surprised if Charles catches him with a: Darce, Peruvian Necktie, Triangle or arm bar off his back.

The first fight was really entertaining. Hopefully this time an illegal knee won't lead to its end.

Yeah it was one of those ones where even though the knee probably allowed Oliveira to take the back and the RNC I hoped they would let the result stand. His performance was just that great.

I am surprised that the UFC made a second fight for these two. Lentz has looked good as of late, but fighters sometimes don't match up good with other fighters.
