Fighting out of Uniejów in Poland, Tybura has the same ethnicity as light heavyweight fighter Jiri Prochazka. After years of training, Tybuira finally made his professional debut on November 5, 2011, against Robert Marcok. Tybura took Marcok to a spiral and defeated him by a rear-naked choke.

Originally scheduled to be at UFC 298, their fight was rescheduled to a later date as mentioned above due to Tuivasa’s injury. Initially, the UFC admin never explained or justified the rescheduling, and ultimately Tuivasa came forward to assert that it was his fault the match was canceled. In his Youtube video, ‘Bam Bam’ stated that he had to undergo meniscus surgery in order to compete.
Tuivasa is recovering from surgery while on the other hand, Tybura is coming fresh from a loss and this might prove as a detrimental factor in their match. Despite the injury, Tuivasa at the media stated that the pressure is there but its nothing special. “There’s always pressure, but it’s no pressure I haven’t seen before. I’ve been here before in my life and infighting. My preparation has been good, so I’m relying on that. Marcin has been around for a long time – I’ve watched him for many years. He’s very experienced. I’m not going to be able to bring anything that he hasn’t seen before.”
