Derrick Lewis Vs Serghei Spiva

 

Derrick Lewis is back on the UFC’s main card headliner, this time taking on the rising MMA star Serghei Spivac. These two hard hitters will battle this Saturday, February 4 inside the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.

Lewis has a two-fight knockout losing streak, but he’s still one of the best knockout artists in the division. He’s beaten Cyril Gane, Tai Tuivasa and Sergei Pavlovich by KO/TKO in the last two years.

Derrick Lewis vs. Serghei Spivac

Derrick Lewis has been in a bit of a slump lately, losing three of his last four fights by KO or TKO. He returns to Las Vegas to face surging Serghei Spivac in the main event of UFC FIGHT NIGHT: LEWIS VS. SPIVAC this Saturday, February 4 at the UFC Apex facility in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The 37-year-old is now at the latter stages of his career, but he still has the power to get the job done. This is a good match for him as it gives him a chance to prove he can still compete in the heavyweight division.

He may be older, but he’s shredded a lot of weight recently and is now a much fitter Black Beast than he has ever been. This should mean he’s more mobile and quick on the feet, and will likely be able to take advantage of his grapple-first heavyweight opponent who is usually susceptible to one-punch knockouts from the ground.

Time & Date

Derrick Lewis is set to face off against surging Serghei Spivac in the main event of UFC FIGHT NIGHT: LEWIS VS. SPIVAC on February 4 in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States.

This is a heavyweight battle between two men who are looking to put their careers back on track with another knockout win. The former champion is coming into this match with a two-fight losing streak, both times by knockout, while Spivac is riding a two-fight winning streak, both of which have been via knockout.

The card also features a welterweight matchup between Stephen Thompson and Kevin Holland. Both are seeking to end their respective losing streaks and move up the rankings.

Line & Odds

A top-ranked heavyweight fight headlines UFC Vegas 68 this weekend, as Derrick Lewis and Serghei Spivac lock horns in the main event. The bout was originally set to take place in November, but it was rebooked after Lewis was forced out of their scheduled headliner due to a fight-week illness.

The two fighters have a few things in common, including having been beaten by a variety of high-caliber opponents. However, that doesn’t necessarily mean they’ll have similar styles against each other.

The main difference in their game is that Spivac is a more effective striker on the feet than Lewis, who is known for his devastating knockout power. But that doesn’t mean they won’t have a battle for the win.

Preliminary Fights

The UFC is set to host another Apex event this Saturday in Nevada, USA. It will be headlined by the fight between Derrick Lewis and Serghei Spivac.

The fight will get underway at 10 PM ET (prelims), with the main card kicking off at 1 AM ET. It will also be broadcast on BT Sport in the UK.

After a delay due to illness, former UFC heavyweight champion Derrick Lewis returns to face off with rising knockout specialist Serghei Spivac at the APEX facility in Sin City, Nevada. The fight is scheduled to go five rounds.

It will be Lewis’ first fight since losing a title shot to Tai Tuivasa last November. Spivac has won two straight and is coming off a submission win against Augusto Sakai. He is a moderate underdog vs. Lewis, but the odds still favor him.
