The UFC is headed back to the APEX Center in Enterprise, Nevada, on March 16, 2024, for UFC Fight Night: Tuivasa vs. Tybura (also known as UFC Vegas 88 and UFC Fight Night 239).
In the main event of UFC Vegas 88, No.9-ranked Tai Tuivasa will lock horns with Marcin Tybura, who is positioned just below the Australian at No.10.
Tai Tuivasa is in dire need of a victory this weekend after going winless in his last three outings. The Aussie was stopped in all of those losses with his most recent defeat coming at the hands of Alexander Volkov via submission last September. Prior to that loss, 'Bam Bam' suffered back-to-back knockout defeats against Ciryl Gane and Sergei Pavlovich.
