REPORT: DENNIS TIULIULIN STEPS IN AT UFC FIGHT NIGHT 232

Christian Leroy Duncan needed a new opponent for UFC Fight Night 232 as the withdrawal of Cesar Almeida and now he has one because VestnikMMA is reporting that Dennis Tiuliulin has accepted the short notice opportunity.

Duncan (8-1-0) has won just one of two under the UFC banner, with that lone win coming over Dusko Todorovic at UFC 286. Duncan is looking to rebound from his first professional MMA defeat, which came to Armen Petrosyan at UFC On ESPN 47. Duncan has earned eight wins as a professional MMA fighter and six of them have come by way of KO/TKO.

Tiuliulin (10-8-0-1NC) has won just one of four in the UFC, with that lone victory coming over Jamie Pickett at UFC 279. Tiuliulin hasn’t picked up a victory in over a year, as that win at UFC 279 took place in September of 2022. Tiuliulin has earned 10 wins as a professional MMA fighter and nine of those have come by way of KO/TKO.

UFC Fight Night 232 takes place on Saturday, November 18 from the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada with Brendan Allen and Paul Craig headlining. PWInsiderXtra is providing live coverage of the event, which streams live on ESPN+.
