UFC two-division champion Daniel Cormier (21-1 MMA, 10-1 UFC) puts his heavyweight belt on the line against the hard-hitting Derrick Lewis (21-5 MMA, 12-3 UFC) at UFC 230, and UFC broadcasters Dan Hardy and John Gooden step “Inside the Octagon” to break down the contest. Cormier is one of the sport’s all-time greats, and he’s a considerable favorite to win the matchup, which takes place at Madison Square Garden in New York and serves as the night’s pay-per-view headliner. But Lewis’ knockout power is the stuff of legend, an equalizing blow Hardy has labeled “the ‘if’ bomb.” But does “The Black Beast” have more than a puncher’s chance? Hardy and Gooden take an in-depth look at the matchup in the latest edition of their pre-fight analysis series “Inside the Octagon.” Check it out in the video above.
