On Tuesday, seven fights were announced for the upcoming UFC 216 pay-per-view event at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nev., on Oct. 7.

Several intriguing lightweight contests were added to the card, including a battle between striking specialists Lando Vannata and Abel Trujillo. “Groovy” is just 1-2 in the Octagon so far, but he’s earned performance bonuses in each of his UFC appearances including his most recent Fight of the Night outing against David Teymur that ended in Vannata taking a unanimous decision loss.

Trujillo saw a three-fight win streak halted in his last fight when he was submitted by James Vick. The Blackzilians product holds a 6-3 UFC record with one no-contest.

In other action, Evan Dunham looks for his fifth consecutive victory when he takes on Beneil Dariush, and former Bellator champion Will Brooks fights Nik Lentz.

UFC veterans Thales Leites and Brad Tavares will meet in a middleweight bout, while one-time flyweight contender John Moraga faces undefeated Russian fighter Magomed Bibulatov.

See the full list of announced bouts below:



Lando Vannata vs. Abel Trujillo
Beneil Dariush vs. Evan Dunham
Will Brooks vs. Nik Lentz
Thales Leites vs. Brad Tavares
John Moraga vs. Magomed Bibulatov
Matt Schnell vs. Marco Beltran

Ainda tem a luta do mestre godbeer que já vale o card inteiro...

Tem que melhorar o card pra um numerado...

Trujillo é bem maior e tem a mão pesada. Se o Vannata vier negligente com a sua defesa, capaz de dormir, hein?

Esse Vannata é novo e faz as lutas boas, só tem que melhorar esse estilo de defesa dele meio aberto, mas as lutas desse rapaz são boas, cara tem futuro se procurar sempre corrigir as falhas dele...

Esse Will brooks é forte demais, mas no UFC parece que ta fazendo estrategia errada, acho que ele ganha contra o Lentz, mas acho que vai perder quando pegar os tops da categoria...
