Derrick Lewis went all out and entertained the crowd with his fight as well as with his post-fight interview. During the conversation with Michael Bisping in the octagon, the fighter revealed that he could not have let an unknown fighter from Brazil beat him.
Yeah, I couldn’t let no taxi cab driver from Brazil beat me. This my first time I ever hearing of that guy.

Lewis fought fellow heavyweight Rodrigo Nascimento, who had his moments throughout the fight. However, it all ended in the third round when ‘The Black Beast’ decided to land a massive right. Nascimento got dropped to the canvas, and the whole crowd cheered. Soon, after further strikes, the referee intervened to stop the fight.
After finishing his opponent, it was not enough, and in a classic Lewis fashion, the fighter removed his fighting shorts and waived it to the crowd. The fighter then took it to another level by mooning to the audience most hilariously.
