Jairzinho Rozenstruik vs. Augusto Sakai will reportedly headline a June 5th UFC Fight Night.
As first reported by GloboEsporte’s Marcelo Barone, the sixth-ranked Rozenstruik will face the ninth-ranked Sakai in a very important fight in the UFC’s heavyweight division. Both fighters likely need a win to hold each of their spots in the top ten among UFC heavyweights.
Rozenstruik is just two months removed from a self-described “worst performance ever” against Ciryl Gane in February, a fight in which he lost by unanimous decision. Before falling to Gane, Rozenstruik had re-emerged as one of the best heavyweights after knocking out former UFC heavyweight champion Junior Dos Santos at UFC 252.
Sakai makes his return to the octagon after a seven-month hiatus following his TKO loss to Alistair Overeem at UFC Vegas 9. Prior to the knockout loss to Overeem, Sakai had been on fire in the UFC’s heavyweight division, having won six-straight leading up to the bout.
Sakai and Rozenstruik also rarely leave it in the judges’ hands, and quite often end their fights on their own terms. Over his kickboxing and MMA career, Rozenstruik has accumulated an eye-popping 74 knockouts, including five knockouts during his time in the UFC.
Sakai has earned 11 knockouts over his MMA career including a most-recent knockout over Blagoy Ivanov at UFC Vegas 1.
The added headliner is a part of an exciting June 5th UFC Fight Night card. In a pair of other heavyweight matchups, Walt Harris is slated to face Marcin Tybura, while Ilir Latifi makes his return to the octagon against the always-tough Tanner Boser.
The UFC has yet to make a formal announcement of the main event booking, but it appears imminent. Regardless, fight fans have plenty to look forward to this summer and the recent addition of Rozenstruik and Sakai is just the icing on the cake.

Earlier tonight (Sat. September 5, 2020) UFC Fight Night: Overeem vs Sakai took place from the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The facility played host to the main event between two ranked heavyweights Alistair Overeem and Augusto Sakai. After fighting through the adversity of four rounds of war between the two, Overeem was able to secure a takedown and finish the fight on the ground in the fifth and final round. In the co-main event, we saw Ovince Saint Preux return to the light-heavyweight division to take on Alonzo Menifield in a fight that resulted in OSP securing a devastating knockout finish in the second round. Outside of these two fights, there were plenty of moments warranting of bonuses.
The First Performance of the Night bonus came in the featherweight division between Brian Kelleher and Ray Rodriguez. After two opponent switch ups over the past week, Brian Kelleher stepped in the cage on less than one day notice against his opponent Ray Rodriguez who was obviously in the same situation getting a late notice call up to make his debut. Kelleher showed his experience and skill snatching onto Rodriguez’s neck early in the first round and submitting him with a guillotine choke.
The second Performance of the Night bonus came in the fight following when middleweight’s Andre Muniz and Bartosz Fabinski met in the octagon. Fabinski quickly looked for the takedown that led to his demise as Muniz showcased his high-level grappling ability securing an armbar submission 2 minutes and 42 seconds into the first round.
The Performance of the Night bonuses kept rolling as the next fight produced another between Michel Pereira and Zelim Imadaev. Pereira put on a three-round showcase looking fantastic and dominating the fight before securing a rear-naked choke submission late in round three.
The final Performance of the Night bonus came in the next fight, the co-main event between Ovince Saint Preux and Alonzo Menifield. Saint Preux showcased his veteran skill and ability to finish catching Menifield with a counter left hook in the second round that would finish the fight and secure him a bonus.
