UFC Vegas 95 Bonus Report: Serghei Spivac is one of three fighters to take home an additional $50,000

The Octagon has returned to Nevada for tonight's UFC Vegas 95 event, a ten-fight schedule headlined by Marcin Tybura vs. Serghei Spivac 2.

The highly anticipated heavyweight rematch proved to be a short-lived affair. Serghei Spivac was able to take the fight to the ground early and promptly moved on to an armbar submission that forced Marcin Tybura to submit (see here). With tonight's impressive victory, “The Polar Bear” has now won four of his last five Octagon appearances.
