A pair of Titanic heavyweights are set to do each other harm on Saturday night when Derrick Lewis meets Serghei Spivac in the main event of UFC Vegas 65. Read on for our UFC Fight Night: Lewis-Spivac best bets.
Lewis is at a crossroads. The 37-year-old heavyweight rode his monstrous power into the upper echelon of the division but was never able to taste gold. Now, facing the possibility of a third loss in a row, “The Black Beast” needs a win if he wants to remain a growing concern amongst the UFC's giants.
With five wins in h is past six bouts, Spivac's career is on an upswing, and he'll no doubt burst into the top 10 of the division if he violently disposes of Lewis. A convincing win over the seasoned veteran would thrust “The Polar Bear” into the heavyweight title picture.
Also on the card: A scintillating light heavyweight matchup between knockout artist Kennedy Nzechukwu and Ion Cutelaba, and a potential heavyweight barnburner pitting Chase Sherman against Waldo Cortes-Acosta.
