The rematch comes more than four years after their first meeting when Iaquinta handed Lee a loss in his UFC debut.
Since that time, Lee has risen up the ranks where he is now the No. 5 lightweight in the world and fresh off a TKO victory against Edson Barboza in his most recent performance.
Meanwhile, Iaquinta will look to get back on track following his loss to Khabib Nurmagomedov back in April after he accepted a five round title fight against the Russian on 24-hours notice.
Lee vs. Iaquinta will headline what will end up as the final UFC card on FOX network before the promotion moves to ESPN in 2019.
