UFC Vegas 95: How much are Marcin Tybura and Serghei Spivac making? Estimated payouts reported
Later this week, Marcin Tybura and Serghei Spivac look to continue their respective climbs in the heavyweight division at UFC Vegas 95.
On Saturday, Aug. 10, the UFC will return to the APEX in Las Vegas, Nevada. In the main event, number nine-ranked Spivac is scheduled to face number eight-ranked Tybura in a rematch. The top 10 heavyweights first fought in February 2020, with Tybura emerging victorious by unanimous decision.
Heading into UFC Vegas 95, Tybura is coming off a first-round submission win against Tai Tuivasa. Meanwhile, Spivac last fought in September 2023 when Ciryl Gane knocked him out in round two of their UFC Paris main event.
The Las Vegas Athletic Commission doesn't release official payouts for fighters. With that said, previously estimated payouts can be analyzed to provide an educated guess on what the UFC Vegas 95 headliners could get paid on Saturday.
Firstly, BETMGM believes Tybura was paid between $250,000-$300,000 for his fight against Tom Aspinall in July 2023. Assuming those numbers are somewhat accurate, the Polish heavyweight could be on the same contract and receive a similar payout for his fight against Spivac.
It should be noted that Tybura is more likely to be paid in the $150,000-$200,000 range, with an opportunity to double his purse with a win bonus.
Meanwhile, Spivac has fought in the UFC 11 times compared to Tybura's 19 octagon appearances. Therefore, the Moldovan heavyweight likely hasn't been re-signed as many times as Tybura, making his estimated payout lower.
Spivac's estimated payout for Saturday's event is $100,000-$150,000. Once again, the 29-year-old has an opportunity to increase his income with a win bonus or a $50,000 performance bonus.
