A heavyweight division attraction is going to be headlining the UFC Fight Night: Sydney card as #6 Mark Hunt faces #10 Marcin Tybura.
Hunt (13-11-1-1NC) has won just one of his last three fights under the UFC banner, with that lone win coming over Derrick Lewis at UFC Fight Night 110. Hunt has previously challenged for the UFC Interim Heavyweight Title, losing to Fabricio Werdum in the main event of UFC 180. Hunt has seen his last eight fights all end via a finish and it has been over four years since one of his fights went the distance.
Tybura (16-2-0) enters the fight on the strength of a three fight winning streak and that includes a win over former UFC Heavyweight Champion Andrei Arlovski. Tybura has only suffered a single defeat under the UFC banner and that came to Timothy Johnson at UFC Fight Night 86. Tybura is also a longtime veteran of the M-1 Challenge promotion, winning seven of the eight fights he competed at in the organization.
UFC Fight Night: Sydney takes place on Saturday, November 18 from the Qudus Bank Arena in Sydney, Australia with Mark Hunt and Marcin Tybura headlining. Fightful is providing live coverage of the event, which airs live on Fox Sports 1.
