Alright folks, ready for some MMA madness? 40-year-old UFC veteran Derick Lewis just made a thunderous comeback after years off and showed the world that retirement is NOT on his agenda! At the Bridgestone Arena spectacle in Nashville, Lewis knocked out the brilliant Brazilian Talison Teixeira in a jaw-dropping 35 seconds. Yes, you read that right — 35 seconds!
This seasoned fighter, known as the “Black Beast,” once again proved why he holds the UFC record for most knockouts. His left hook landed square on the head of the tallest UFC fighter, dropping him like a rag doll. The referee had no choice but to stop the fight immediately, and Lewis exploded in celebration — shooting imaginary arrows at his opponent, stripping off his shorts, and striking a dog pose like he was marking his territory.
Lewis now boasts an impressive 29 career wins, with a staggering 24 by knockout! In the UFC alone, he has racked up 16 knockouts, further cementing his record. And all this at 40 years old! While younger fighters scramble to make their mark, Lewis shows that age is just a number when it comes to raw power and speed.
But let’s be real — this isn’t just a fight story. It’s about a fighter who laughed in the face of retirement and reminded everyone he’s still the king of the octagon. Is this the dawn of a new era for Derick Lewis? Or just one last glorious moment before the curtain falls? One thing’s for sure — you better count him in, and fast!
