Undefeated British heavyweight Mick Parkin will face Poland’s Marcin Tybura at UFC London on 22 March.
Parkin, 29, has won the first 10 fights of his career and quickly risen to 14th in the UFC’s heavyweight rankings since his debut in the promotion last year.
In 39-year-old Tybura, he faces an opponent ranked six places above him who is a veteran of 13 wins in 21 UFC bouts.
Parkin – a team-mate of British interim heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall, who beat Tybura in 2023 – last fought in July, knocking out Lukasz Brzeski.
Tybura fought last month, stopping Jhonata Diniz in the second round.
The UFC also announced a light-heavyweight bout between Poland’s Jan Blachowicz and New Zealand’s Carlos Ulberg.
No other fights have yet been announced for the card at the O2 Arena.
