UFC Fight Night 111 takes shape in Singapore, including Andrei Arlovski vs. Marcin Tybura

While the main and co-main events for UFC Fight Night 111 have not yet been announced, the promotion today did unveil five bookings for the card, which takes place June 17 at Singapore Indoor Stadium in Kallang, Singapore. (Broadcast plans have not yet been announced.)

Former heavyweight champ Andrei Arlovski (25-14 MMA, 14-8 UFC) has been added to the card against Marcin Tybura (15-2 MMA, 2-1 UFC). In addition, Asian MMA legend Takanori Gomi (35-12 MMA, 4-6 UFC) will take on Jon Tuck (9-4 MMA, 3-4 UFC) at lightweight; Ulka Sasaki (19-4-2 MMA, 2-3 UFC) meets Justin Scoggins (11-3 MMA, 4-3 UFC) in a flyweight bout; Russell Doane (14-7 MMA, 2-4 UFC) and Kwan Ho Kwak (9-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) throw down at bantamweight; and Cyril Asker (8-2 MMA, 1-1 UFC) meets Walt Harris (9-5 MMA, 3-4 UFC) in a heavyweight bout.

I didn't know Gomi was still under contract. Does anyone know if this is his last fight before he gets to go to Rizin?

@Haulport So how do you feel about Arlovski vs Tybura..?

Arlovski is 0-4 going back to just January of last year, with 3 of those being KO losses. Going back the last 9 years, he's had his lights shut off 6 times.

Arlovski, Bigfoot, Nelson... A lot of heavy weights are to be walking zombies when they retire

I think Andrei wants to die after the schedule he kept in 2016 and now 2017...

He has always been chinny and has zero boxing defense regardless of the hours spent with Freddie Roach. He should be retiring instead of looking to get his head taken off again.

I'm hoping it's a retirement fight for Andre, but I see him wanting another higher profile fight if he wins, or a higher profile retirement fight if he loses

Peeeeeettttbooooollll!

Sorry guys. This is a good match-up for Arlovski. I will take $100 on Arlovski to win against anybody dependable til, let's say, midnight April 5, Pacific Time.

Full disclosure, I expect this to come out Arlovski -175 or greater when the lines come out, maybe as high as Arl -320, and am only offering this expecting to do some kind of scalp along with 5dimes backed bet.

put shogun on that

 

[LurkenLikaGherkin]

Amending for the sake of future Nostradumbass points: my predict is opening line is something close to Arlovski -225 / Tybura +185.

What is really crazy is someone like AA never ever changed but a guy like Overeem totally changed his game and left his ego at the door. Too bad AA couldnt follow suit.

RDA is fighting Tarec on this card as well.
