Matches to Make After UFC Fight Night 174

Derrick Lewis called down the thunder once he realized he was in legitimate danger.

“The Black Beast” set the Ultimate Fighting Championship record for knockouts by a heavyweight, as he put away Alexey Oleynik with punches in the second round of their UFC Fight Night 174 main event on Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Oleynik wilted under an avalanche of ground-and-pound 21 seconds into Round 2.

Lewis danced with the devil for much of the first round, as he closed the distance on “The Boa Constrictor,” executed a takedown and engaged him on the ground.
