After a spectacular fight card in Abu Dhabi, the UFC is headed back to the APEX Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Aug. 10, 2024, for its upcoming card, UFC Fight Night: Tybura vs. Spivac 2 (also known as UFC Vegas 95 and UFC on ESPN 61).
In the main event of UFC Vegas 95, the No.8-ranked heavyweight contender Marcin Tybura will lock horns with Serghei Spivac, who is positioned at No.9.
The pair will meet in a rematch of their original bout from February 2020 where Tybura outpoined the Moldovan to get his hand raised.
Tybura suffered a TKO loss against Tom Aspinall last year but rebounded with a first-round technical submission win over Tai Tuivasa in March. 'Tybur' will hope to keep the momentum going when he faces a dangerous opponent in Spivac. He is set to feature in his third straight UFC headliner on Saturday.

Spivac, on the other hand, registered three consecutive finishes before getting stopped by Ciryl Gane via second-round TKO last time out in September. 'The Polar Bear' will be determined to get back to his winning ways when he returns to the octagon this weekend.
