The Ultimate Fighting Championship has announced that lightweight contenders Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje will fight in headliner of an April 14th, UFC on FOX card.

The location and  venue for the event has yet to be determined.

Gaethje (18-1) will be looking to get back on track, after suffering the first loss of his pro career, as the former WSOF champ was stopped by Eddie Alvarez in December.

Poirier (22-5, 1 no-contest) is coming off a submission win over Anthony Pettis in November.

Currently Gaethje is ranked #5 in the UFC’s 155 division, and Poirier is #6.
