Rozenstruik (11-2 MMA) will enter tonight’s headliner looking to rebound from his recent unanimous decision loss to Ciryl Gane. Prior to that setback, ‘Bigi Boy’ was coming off a second round TKO victory over former UFC heavyweight champion Junior Dos Santos.

Meanwhile, Augusto Sakai (15-2-1 MMA) will be returning to action for the fist time since September of 2020, where he suffered a TKO loss to Alistair Overeem. That setback snapped a six-fight winning streak for the Brazilian, which included four wins under the UFC banner.
