The Brazilian made his UFC debut in 2020 and has competed in five UFC bouts. He is currently 3-2 in the promotion. And will not compete for over a year due to the suspension.

Meanwhile, ‘Bam Bam’ is currently on a rampage and is unbeaten since 2020. He is on a four-fight undefeated streak and has finished all his previous opponents via KO/TKO, three of which came in the first round.

He finished a fighter from the top-15 of the heavyweight division in UFC last month. Interestingly, Tuivasa might return to action next month to do the same.
