Aussie heavyweight Tai Tuivasa is set to fight in Chicago once again.
It was first revealed by The Daily Telegraph that Tuivasa will fight Blagoy Ivanov at UFC 238 in Chicago.
It will be Tuivasa’s first fight since falling short against former UFC heavyweight champion Junior Dos Santos in Adelaide late last year. The loss to JDS was the first in Tuivasa’s career and brought his professional record to 8-1.
