Inside the APEX at UFC Vegas 88 Tai Tuivasa and Marcin Tybura will finally get the chance to showcase their heavyweight prowess. This heavyweight battle was originally scheduled to take place back at UFC 298 before Tuivasa tore his meniscus in training.
Can UFC Vegas 88 be the night that Tai Tuivasa bounces back from three consecutive losses? He has bounced back before from such a daunting fate, and if he can pass a test like Marcin Tybura the fan favourite can continue to be a top ten contender in the heavyweight division.
Marcin Tybura has been a staple in the UFC heavyweight division since 2016 and will look to weather the storm of the power that Tai possesses and get a finish of his own. If Marcin can make a massive statement it could put his most recent loss against current interim heavyweight champ Tom Aspinall in the past as he makes his way to being a top contender.
