LAS VEGAS – Ellsworth native and former Ultimate Fighting Championship heavyweight champion Tim Sylvia will get another chance at the title Feb. 5 against Andrei Arlovski.

Sylvia (19-1) will battle Arlovski (8-3) to recapture the title he lost to Frank Mir earlier this year. Sylvia was supposed to fight Arlovski in April, but withdrew days before the bout because he had traces of a banned diuretic in his system. Those traces of an anabolic agent forced him to relinquish his title belt a year ago following the results of a post-fight drug test.
