The UFC managed to find a new opponent for Marcin Tybura. Stepping in on less than a week's notice, Justin Willis will make his promotional debut against the Polish heavyweight Saturday night in Brooklyn, NY, replacing Luiz Henrique. The match-up was first reported on Monday's edition of The MMA Hour.
Tybura (14-2) goes for his second win under the promotion’s banner after knocking out Viktor Pesta in August. In his UFC debut, the former M-1 heavyweight champion lost to Timothy Johnson via decision.
Willis (4-1) enters the Octagon for the first time eight months after stopping Juliano Coutinho at WSOF 31.
