A heavyweight tilt pitting Tim Johnson against UFC newcomer Junior Albini is the latest addition to UFC on FOX 25. UFC officials confirmed the booking Thursday following an initial report by Newsday.
Johnson (11-3) has alternated wins and loss since debuting in the UFC in 2015, racking up a 3-2 record highlighted by Octagon victories over Shamil Abdurakhimov, Marcin Tybura, and most recently Daniel Omielanczuk. The 32-year-old American heavyweight is a two-time Division II All-American wrestler. His lone UFC defeats came in decisions against Jared Rosholt and Alexander Volkov.
