Serghei Spivac might want to be careful what he wishes for.
The Moldovan heavyweight kept his winning ways rolling as he scored his fourth victory in five fights with a quick first-round armbar submission of Marcin Tybura in Saturday’s UFC Vegas 95 main event. Making the moment sweeter for Spivac was that he avenged a loss to Tybura from February 2020, when Spivac was competing in just his third UFC fight.
Fighters on social media were impressed with Spivac’s finishing acumen, especially considering Tybura had never been submitted before. Afterwards, Spivac called for a fight with any heavyweight ranked above him. One answered.
Heavyweight contender Jailton Almeida responded to Spivac’s open challenge, writing, “Spivak, do you want someone above you in the rankings? I’m here. #7 vs. #8. I want to fight, bro!
“Happy you get the finish early so we can fight soon!”

Spivac with a sweet armbar from guard after a miscalculation on a back take. Didn’t think Sergey had that in his arsenal. Not sure Tybura did either after he got a bit lackadaisical from top and Spivac executed a clean attack. Wow!
