Recent event - Lewis has updated record for most KO in UFC history and most KO in heavyweight. With stats like his, its a huge question why he is so low on rank and was never a champ. His post fight speech was hilarious. Gnp his wife

As much as his KO ratio is really impressive (24 KOs out of total of 29 career wins), let's not forget that he also has 12 losses, so he's current rank at 8th place seems pretty fair. I'm not sure if this has been updated for his last win, but it's possible it will not get him any higher, as Taixeira was ranked below him.
Between 2022 and 2023 he was on a 3 losses streak, when he lost by KO, TKO and submission and it looked like he might be on a way out, but he rebounded nicely.
When asked by a reporter in the post-event interview, Dana white has confirmed that Derrick might be one win away from a title shot. That would be a great ending of his career (win or lose).
I wouldn't be surprised if Aspinal Vs Lewis generated more sales than Aspinal Vs Gane as Derrick is much more hypeable (at least right now).
