Alex Oliveira will lock horns with Randy Brown in a welterweight scrap at an Ultimate Fighting Championship event on Feb. 27.

Multiple outlets confirmed the booking following an initial report from Combate . UFC Fight Night is headlined by a light heavyweight tilt pitting Dominick Reyes against Jiri Prochazka. A location for the event has not been formally announced.

Oliveira, 32, had a two-bout winning streak snapped at UFC 254, where he was submitted in the opening stanza by Shavkat Rakhmonov on Oct. 24. The Brazilian “Cowboy” is 11-7-1 with one no contest during his tenure with the Las Vegas based promotion.

Brown is coming off a second-round KO defeat to Vicente Luque at UFC Fight Night 173 on Aug. 1. Prior to that, the 30-year-old Jamaican had scored back-to-back finishes of Bryan Barberena and Warlley Alves in the Octagon.
