Lentz is looking rebound after falling to Charles Oliveira and Arnold Allen in his last two Octagon appearances. The Sanford MMA product’s UFC tenure began in 2009 and includes wins over the likes of Tyson Griffin, Diego Nunes, Danny Castillo, Will Brooks and Gray Maynard.
Coincidentally, Evloev is coming off a three-round verdict over Grundy at UFC on ESPN 14 in July that improved his career mark to 13-0. The Russian was supposed to return on Dec. 5 against Nate Landwehr but that bout was canceled after Evloev tested positive for COVID-19.
