Marcin Tybura came to MMA as a jiu-jitsu fighter, and he used his formidable skills to rack up a 13-1 record on the regional circuit. He finished 11 of those 13 wins and won the M1 Global heavyweight title.
He joined the UFC in 2016, only months before the company's $4 billion-plus sale, and was eager to prove himself on the world's biggest stage. Things, though, didn't always go as he wanted.
A funny thing occurred: As he diversified, as he improved his stand-up game, his jiu-jitsu became more dangerous.at the O2 Arena in London, England, a fight designed to showcase Aspinall's varied talents. Aspinall is clearly the biggest fight of Tybura's career, and while he's been overlooked in many corners, he's certain it's not just going to be The Tom Aspinall Show.
He's 37, and it's probably safe to say that most UFC fans outside of his native Poland have never considered him a potential champion. Aspinall has come away impressed after studying Tybura carefully, and he vows he's not looking past him — because Tybura is the real deal.
