LAS VEGAS – Marcin Tybura wasn’t thrilled when he received the call that his fight with Tai Tuivasa would happen a month later than expected.
Originally scheduled to be part of February’s UFC 298 lineup, the heavyweight bout between Tybura (24-8 MMA, 11-7 UFC) and Tuivasa (15-6 MMA, 8-6 UFC) was postponed to Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 239 main event at the UFC Apex (ESPN+).
Although it’s now a headlining bout with five rounds, Tybura admits the adjustment of date disrupted his preparation in a negative way.
