Dos Anjos returned to action last month after 11 months out of action due to injury, and shocked many with a first round knockout victory over George Sotiropoulos at UFC 132. The win was his fourth in the UFC, putting him above .500 in the Octagon with a 4-3 overall record in the UFC.
Tibau's up and down UFC career continued in the positive in his last fight, where he submitted Rafaello Oliveira in the second round at UFC 130 in May. The longtime veteran has won four of his last five fights, and holds a 9-5 record in the UFC overall.
UFC 139 takes place from the HP Pavilion in San Jose, Calif. on Nov. 19, and is expected to be headlined by a Heavyweight Championship fight between Cain Velasquez and Junior dos Santos.
Penick's Analysis: This fight is likely to take place on the preliminary card, but it's still a really good lightweight matchup between two guys in the middle of the division. Neither is going to be in the title picture anytime soon, but they are each exciting fighters that are capable of finishing the other, and that makes for a very entertaining bout for any card.
