MELBOURNE, Australia –  Tai Tuivasa is ready to return to the octagon after suffering in the first loss of his career against former UFC champ Junior Dos Santos at UFC Fight Night 142 in December. After going on a 10-fight run of victories to begin his career, Tuivasa (10-1 MMA, 3-1 UFC) experienced a second-round TKO setback against the well-tested Dos Santos (20-5 MMA, 14-4 UFC) in what was his first UFC headliner. It was an important moment for Tuivasa, who admitted the old adage of learning more from a loss than a win rings true for him. “You always want to win, but it’s good that I lost to a guy like that,” Tuivasa said during a guest fighter media session ahead of Saturday’s UFC 234 event
