The Octagon returns to England for today’s UFC London event, a fifteen-biout fight card headlined by Tom Aspinall vs. Marcin Tybura.
Aspinall (12-3 MMA) will be returning to action for the first time in twelve months, this after suffering a knee injury in his most previous effort against Curtis Blaydes. That disappointing setback snapped the Manchester native’s eight-fight winning streak, which included five wins inside of the Octagon.
Meanwhile, Marcin Tybura (24-7 MMA) enters today’s headliner sporting a two-fight win streak, his latest being a unanimous decision victory over Blagoy Ivanov. Prior to that, the 37-year-old Polish fighter had earned a majority decision win over Alexander Romanov.
UFC London is co-headlined by a women’s flyweight bout featuring Molly McCann taking on Julija Stoliarenko.
McCann (13-5 MMA) will enter the contest looking to rebound, this after suffering a first-round submission loss to Erin Blanchfield at UFC 281. Prior to that setback, ‘Meatball’ had put together a three-fight winning streak, which included knockout victories over Luana Carolina and Hannah Goldy.
Meanwhile, Julija Stoliarenko (10-7-2 MMA) has gone just 1-4 over her past five Octagon appearances. The Lithuanian standout suffered a TKO loss to Chelsea Chandler in her most previous fight last October.
