Derrick Lewis says his new UFC deal is a lucrative one that could bother some people. After fighting out his contract, it didn’t take long for Lewis (27-11 MMA, 18-9 UFC) to sign a new eight-fight deal with the UFC . His deal was renewed after he scored a 33-second TKO of Marcos Rogerio de Lima at UFC 291 in July. The first fight of his new contract comes Saturday when he takes on Jailton Almeida (19-2 MMA, 5-0 UFC) in the UFC Fight Night 231 headliner at Ginasio Do Ibirapuera in Sao Paulo. The event streams on ESPN+.
