    Derrick Lewis vs Tai Tuivasa Preview | UFC 271

    UFC 271 — Heavyweight Bout | Match 2
    Derrick “The Black Beast” Lewis (26-8-0, 21 KO, 1 Sub) vs. Tai “Bam Bam” Tuivasa (14-3-0, 13 KO, 0 Sub)
    Date: Saturday, Feb. 12, 2022
    Fight Time: This will be the fourth fight on the main card, which begins at 10 p.m. EST.
    Venue: Toyota Center — Houston, TX
    Coverage: ESPN+

    This is a fight between two fan-favorites in the UFC. Derrick Lewis vs Tai Tuivasa is going to draw a lot of excitement, especially with Lewis fighting in his hometown of Houston. Don’t expect this fight to go the distance.

    Lewis has the most knockouts in UFC history. However, Tuivasa has been knocked out only once, which was against Junior Dos Santos back in 2018. Tuivasa has seemingly figured it out, as he has risen the ranks after four straight knockout victories.

    With the length and seemingly the power advantage, Lewis should be considered to end this fight within two rounds. However, we saw him crumble in his last fight in front of a Houston crowd. Will the pressure be too much?

    I am a simple Wisconsin man: I love beer and sports. I decided to create FlurrySports because I was sick of the politics and non-stories that the fat cat corporations put out. When you see football articles from me, just know that I combine my knowledge from playing, coaching, athletic training, and sports management/economic courses to give you a unique, but I feel well-rounded point of view. I am always down to talk about anything, so follow me on Twitter @FantasyFlurry if you decide you want more of me!
