UFC commentator Daniel Cormier refutes claims Derrick Lewis' Latest Ko was a 'Bad Stoppage'.
The heavyweight knockout King Derrick Lewis of the UFC continues to write the history while he has snapped KO #16 in the Main Event of Five-Round of UFC Nashville on Saturday evening.
The victim of Lewis was the second highest hunter in the history of UFC, 6'7 ″ Tallison Teixeira. The undefeated knockout artist was eliminated in the opening round.
Within a minute, Lewis falsified that he was injured and dropped Teixeira with a blow, followed with more strikes for the finish. Lewis celebrated by pulling his shorts, calling President Donald Trump and months of the public.
Lewis' TKO interruption of Teixeira did not come without controversy, because some argued that it was an early interruption since Teixeira returned.

“That was incredible,” Cormier said about Lewis' Ko on the UFC Nashville broadcast.
“People who said there was a bad stopping … Teixeira took the case to pull herself up,” Cormier added.
“Referee must take a point. He cannot stop the finish to take the point so that you stop the fight.
“He was gone,” said Lewis about Teixeira.
“You can't grab the cage to pull yourself at your feet and then say that it was a bad stopping.”
