A heavyweight showdown between Tom
Aspinall and Sergei
Pavlovich has been added to the
UFC Fight Night 191 lineup.
Promotion officials announced the pairing on Wednesday. UFC Fight
Night 191 takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas on Sept. 4 and
is headlined by a middleweight clash pitting Derek
Brunson against Darren
Till.
Aspinall is currently on a three-bout winning streak within the Las
Vegas-based promotion that includes finishes of Jake
Collier, Alan Baudot
and Andrei
Arlovski. The former Cage Warriors competitor is on a six-fight
winning streak overall in which only Arlovski has made it past the
first round against him.
Pavlovich, meanwhile, has been victorious in 14 of 15 outings since
beginning his professional tenure in 2014. The former Fight Nights
Global champion lost his Octagon debut to Alistair
Overeem via first-round TKO before rebounding to score
back-to-back first-round finishes of Marcelo
Golm and Maurice
Greene in his next two UFC appearances.
