Derrick Lewis, the UFC heavyweight known for his knockout power and larger-than-life personality, isn’t done chasing gold. After a brutal KO victory at UFC Nashville, he made it clear he’s gunning for one last shot at the title. At 38, time isn’t on his side, but Lewis believes he’s still got what it takes to mix it up with the division’s best.

Editor’s Note: Lewis’s refusal to fade quietly adds intrigue to the UFC’s heavyweight division, which thrives on star power and sudden violence. His title aspirations—even as a long shot—keep fans engaged, and his knockouts are always must-see TV. If he pulls it off, it’d be one of the sport’s great late-career resurgences. If not? Well, the ride will be fun anyway.

Gabriel Bonfim edged out a split-decision win over fan favorite Stephen Thompson at UFC Nashville, but the crowd wasn’t having it—boos rained down as the result was announced.

Editor’s Note: Thompson’s losing streak stings for longtime fans who admire his sportsmanship and flashy striking style, while Bonfim’s win—despite the backlash—shows how divisive judging can be in MMA. It’s a reminder that even in a sport built on finishes, controversial decisions still dominate the conversation.

Editor’s Note: Knockouts like this don’t just shift momentum for a fighter—they reshape divisions. Charriere needed a big performance to stay relevant, and this finish does exactly that. For fans, it’s a reminder of why MMA is so unpredictable (and thrilling) when fighters go for broke.

Editor’s Note: Walker’s latest win isn’t just another highlight—it’s a statement.
