The UFC returns to its home base on Saturday, with two dangerous heavyweights set to clash in a five-round main event. Read on for our UFC picks and parlay predictions ahead of Saturday Derrick Lewis vs. Serghei Spivac card.
A week removed from its annual trip to the Big Apple, the UFC returns to the Apex, where fan favorite Derrick Lewis aims to snap a two-fight skid at the expense of fellow heavyweight Serghei Spivac. A two-time UFC title challenger, the 37-year-old Lewis is in dire need of a win after falling to both Tai Tuivasa and Sergei Pavlovich via strikes earlier this year.
Spivac's 2022 has been far more successful, as he dispatched both Greg Hardy and Augusto Sakai by TKO and brought his UFC record to a solid 6-3 with four stoppages.
In the bill's co-main event, Ion Cutelaba meets Kennedy Nzechukwu at light heavyweight. Like Lewis, Cutelaba aims to bounce back from two straight stoppage losses, most recently tapping to Johnny Walker in September. Nzechukwu was last seen scoring a TKO over Karl Roberson in July.
