The main event of UFC Vegas 28 sees Jairzinho Rozenstruik and Augusto Sakai lock horns in a clash of top-10 ranked heavyweights. Rozenstruik is 5-2 overall in the UFC but he is coming off of a tough loss to Ciryl Gane in his last fight, while Sakai is 4-1 in the UFC and coming off of a brutal TKO defeat to Alistair Overeem. For both men to remain in title contention in a stacked division they will need to go in there and get the win here.

The co-main event also features heavyweights as Walt Harris takes on Marcin Tybura. Harris is coming off of back-to-back knockout losses while Tybura has won his last four fights in a row and has been looking great as of late. Both fighters are ranked in the top-15 so this is an important fight as far as the heavyweight division rankings are concerned.
