[autotag]Derrick Lewis[/autotag] knows how to bounce back from defeats in style.
The fan-favorite UFC heavyweight snapped a three-fight losing streak this past July with one of his best career knockouts. Back at UFC 291 in Salt Lake City, Lewis needed just 33 seconds with Marcos Rogerio de Lima to close the show as he blasted de Lima with a flying knee to the chin and then finished with ground-and-pound.
You can rewatch Lewis’ most recent win in the video above.
