This bout was fought by Roberts (12-4 MMA, 4-4 UFC) as a replacement for the in-form fighter Rybicki (19-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC).
It was a great fight from Rybicki, who used the bottom position to roll into the armbar near the cage, and Roberts had to scream that it was over and had referee Mike Beltran intervene.
The winning streak continues for @RebeckiMateusz 👏
With that submission he moves to 3-0 in the UFC! #UFC295 pic.twitter.com/Pdk0FvKQ7n

Rybicki has now won 16 straight fights dating back to his only career loss in September 2014. Roberts has lost four straight under the UFC banner.
“I’m really happy that I won in the most famous arena in the world,” Rybicki said during his post-fight interview with Joe Rogan. “This was my biggest dream. Thank you everyone for coming. And Dana (white), please do a UFC event in Poland. We want to fight for you. … I want to fight someone in the top 15.”
