Tai Tuivasa to fight Blagoy Ivanov at UFC 238

Returning to the site of his last win, Tuivasa is set to face Blagoy Ivanov at UFC 238 on June 8 at United Center in Chicago, per The Daily Telegraph. That’s the same location where Tuivasa defeated Andrei Arlovski via unanimous decision last June at UFC 225.

The fight was confirmed on UFC.com.

The 26-year-old Tuivasa is 3-1 in the UFC so far, having defeated his first three Octagon opponents before succumbing to strikes in the second round of his most recent outing against former heavyweight champion Junior dos Santos, a main event bout that took place in December at UFC Adelaide in Tuivasa’s home country of Australia.
