Makhachev Criticizes Lewis For Performance In Fight With Almeida

UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev commented on the performance of American heavyweight Derrick Lewis in his fight with Brazilian Jailton Almeida.

Recall that on the night of November 5 at UFC Fight Night 231 in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Almeida defeated Lewis by unanimous decision of the judges. It's worth noting that the Brazilian controlled his opponent on the ground for almost the entire fight.
