LAS VEGAS – Tai Tuivasa returns to the octagon under the unideal circumstances at UFC Fight Night 239, yet, he’s fully confident that he’s going to get the job done.
Tuivasa (15-6 MMA, 8-6 UFC) takes on Marcin Tybura (24-8 MMA, 11-7 UFC) in the main event of Saturday’s card at the UFC Apex (ESPN+). He looks to snap a three-fight losing skid and get back to his winning ways. It’s a tough position to be in, because a fourth defeat would send him further down the rankings and maybe even make his status with the promotion uncertain.
But despite all the optics around the fight, Tuivasa said he’s unaffected by the stakes.
