Derrick Lewis has been competing in the UFC since 2014, and at one point, he was even talked about as a title challenger. But all more or less top fighters have already adapted to his primitive tactics (tolerate, get close, and strike). So when the level of opposition increased, the defeats of The Black Beast flew like migratory birds - in the last five fights, he won only once. Nevertheless, his terrible power didn't disappear, and many serious guys couldn't survive after him - 𝙎𝙝𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙡 𝘼𝙗𝙙𝙪𝙧𝙖𝙠𝙝𝙞𝙢𝙤𝙫, Marcin Tybura, Alexander Volkov, Alexey Oleinik, and Curtis Blades.
Marcos Rogerio de Lima
De Lima is also a fairly well-known figure, he's been in the UFC for a long time, but he's never been a star, and he's unlikely to ever rise above his current if not top, level. Like almost every heavyweight, he hits very hard but can also choke if necessary (Andrei Arlovski will confirm it).
Expert Betting Tips
The time of Derrick Lewis is irrevocably over, and Rogerio de Lima was an average performer and will be for a long time. The Brazilian has enough intelligence and patience to stay out of the way, and if necessary, he will clinch and dry up where necessary. Also, in the second round, the Black Beast will slow down, get tired and wait for his chance. The keys to victory for the Brazilian are in the fight, it's obvious, and Sergey Spivak showed how to do it when Lewis is the opponent - Derrick is frankly weak in this component.
