UFC Vegas 95 featured a lackluster card with only three finishes and no knockouts, disappointing fans and Dana White alike. In the main event, Serghei Spivac submitted Marcin Tybura with an armbar, positioning himself for a potential matchup against Jailton Almeida. Meanwhile, local MMA fighter Malcolm Wellmaker, undefeated at 7-0, is preparing for a pivotal fight in the Contender Series on August 27, aiming to secure a UFC contract. The event saw Toshiomi Kazama and Youssef Zalal achieve submission victories, with all finishers earning performance bonuses. UFC on ESPN 61 also took place, with official scorecards available and post-fight interviews highlighting the fighters' experiences.
