Aspinall vs Tybura: Fight time, full UFC London 2023 card, prediction, latest betting odds tonight

The UFC returns to London tonight as heavyweight Tom Aspinall tops the bill.

Aspinall beat Alexander Volkov at the O2 little over a year ago in a brilliant display but saw his progress curtailed by a serious knee injury picked up against Curtis Blaydes.

Now back after a lengthy layoff, it is a hugely important night in the 30-year-old’s career as he hunts for a world title shot but must first overcome Marcin Tybura.

Co-headliner Molly McCann is another looking for redemption.

Her defeat to rising star Erin Blanchfield last year took McCann to “dark places” but a victory against Julija Stoliarenko would be a major statement of intent.

UFC London 2023 predictions

Beating Tybura certainly isn’t a formality but the Polish fighter is not as tough a test as Blaydes, who Aspinall picked up his injury against.

While a lengthy lay-off does raise some questions, Apsinall blasted past Alexander Volkov a year ago and, at that time, was riding the crest of a wave.

Even with the injury, the Brit looks a strong favourite.

Aspinall to win via TKO.
