Follow all of the action from UFC Fight Night: 'Cowboy' vs. 'Cowboy'
UFC veteran Donald Cerrone makes his 20th Octagon appearance tonight when he takes on rising lightweight Alex "Cowboy" Oliveira in a welterweight bout in the main event of UFC Fight Night in Pittsburgh.
"Cowboy" Cerrone is coming off his first loss in his last nine fights to current lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos and is looking to get back on the horse as he jumps up to welterweight to face Oliveira, who steps in on short notice after Tim Means was pulled from the fight thanks to a USADA violation. The Brazilian, Oliveira, has won three of his first four fights inside the Octagon, including a submission over UFC and Strikeforce vet K.J. Noons.
In the co-main event, Derek Brunson tries to continue his rise through the middleweight ranks with a win over 15th-ranked Roan Carneiro. The Jackson-Winklejohn fighter has posted first-round TKOs in his last two outings, but will have his hands full with Carneiro, who scored an upset over Mark Munoz in his return to the UFC in February of 2015.
The rest of the card is filled with plenty of young and veteran talent alike, and the UFC's return to Pittsburgh should not disappoint.
Follow all the action, here, starting with the UFC Fight Pass prelims at 5:30 PM ET/2:30 PM PT before the card jumps to FS1 at 7 PM ET/4 PM PT.
