Alongside confirming Newark as the host city for UFC 328, the promotion has booked a middleweight clash between Marco Tulio and Roman Kopylov as the first officially announced fight for the card. Tulio, looking to build on a growing reputation, draws Kopylov, a dangerous striker with a knockout‑heavy resume. The matchup gives UFC 328 early depth under the pair of title fights already reported for the event. With the light heavyweight belt vacant and the flyweight title also on the line that night, Tulio vs. Kopylov offers both men a chance to make a statement in a division seeking fresh contenders. Expect more bouts to be added over the coming weeks.
