Tirabassi competed for Venezuela in the men's 400 m freestyle at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. He fired off a powerful 3:52.69 to win handily over the rest of the competition and dip beneath the FINA B-standard (3:58.00) at the Latin Cup in Serravalle, San Marino. Leading the first heat from the initial length until the 250-metre lap, Tirabassi tried to hold on with Norway's Gard Kvale towards the final turn of the race by just half a body length apart from each other, but could not catch him immediately to regain his lead and end up instead with a runner-up time in 3:53.26. Tirabassi failed to advance further to the top eight final, as he placed thirty-first overall in the prelims.
