It's been confirmed that Tom Aspinall will face Marcin Tybura at the UFC Fight Night event in London on Saturday, July 22.

The night at the O2 will mark the second time the UFC has come to the UK in 2023. The promotion's last event, UFC 286, took place in March, also at The O2, and was headlined by the welterweight trilogy clash between champion Leon Edwards and Kamaru Usman in which Edwards came out on top.

Aspinall's heavyweight clash will come almost a year to the day he suffered an injury in his last bout with Curtis Blaydes and it will be the Wigan man's first fight since the incident. Tybura will come into the clash in good form fresh off two successive victories. The event is expected to be one to watch as Liverpool's Molly McCann is also set to be in action on the night as will Andre Muniz, who is taking on Paul Craig.
