Derrick Lewis was worried among the UFC fans after he had made a hilarious but alarming admission with regard to his weight.
The UFC will return to Nashville for a new Action-Packed Fight Night that will be led by heavy weights Derrick Lewis and Tallison Teixeira.
'The Black Beast' Lewis is generally considered one of the most exciting hunters in sport because of his incredible record for most Kos in UFC history, and he wants to expand this this Saturday.
Although Lewis has been involved in some of the most exciting heavyweight battles in recent years, he was also involved in what Joe Rogan labeled as the worst heavyweight fight ever.

Derrick Lewis causes concern about his UFC Nashville -weight
The former UFC heavyweight Challenger is perhaps one of the few heavyweights in the world that still have to cut off to reach the limit of 266 pounds.
Several times during its long UFC official period, Lewis has weighed in extremely close to the 266 pound limit, with 265 pounds.
In 2021, Justin Tafa made an unwanted piece of history when he became the first heavyweight in the UFC to miss weight when he weighed at 267 pounds.
Only a few days from his UFC Nashville Main Event has caused Lewis concern with the UFC fan base that he might miss the weight.
“When I start counting calories and realize that I have eaten for a whole family of 4,” Lewis said in a message about his Instagram story.
At a certain point in his career, Lewis decided to better take care of his training regime and even surprised fans when he appeared on the scales with noticeable abdominal muscles.
Fans respond to Lewis' hilarious but alarming access to weight
Although 'The Black Beast' is generally considered one of the greatest jokers in the UFC selection, his recognition still comes as concerned his earlier weighing results.
“It is still great Derrick Lewis succeeded in coming to the UFC record for Kos and two title shots of really not giving, such as – at the level he could. Imagine. Imagine he trained at the highest possible level,” said a fan.
“He has to fight against Daniel Cormier if he misses weight,” another fan responded.
“I said this because he certainly had a July 4 BBQ party,” said a third fan.
