UFC Fight Night 191 has a new co-main event.
The promotion confirmed on Saturday night that Sergey
Spivak will step in for Sergei
Pavlovich and meet Tom
Aspinall on Sept. 4 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. According to
a report from
MMAjunkie.com, Pavlovich was forced out of the card due to visa
issues. UFC Fight Night 191 is headlined by a middleweight showdown
between Derek
Brunson and Darren
Till.
Spivak has built some momentum since a loss to Marcin
Tybura at UFC Fight Night 169, as he has won his last three
promotional appearances. Most recently, “The Polar Bear” outpointed
Alexey
Oleynik at UFC on ESPN 25.
Aspinall, meanwhile, is on a six-bout winning streak that includes
finishes of Jake
Collier, Alan Baudot
and Andrei
Arlovski in UFC competition.
