Bet Now on this Fight

Derrick Lewis has a career online betting record of 28-12 and 1 NC. In comparison, Tallison Teixeira is 8-0 for his career.

Derrick Lewis is best known for having the most knockouts in UFC history. However, he has not been consistently effective in recent years. Lewis has lost five of his most recent eight bouts. On the positive side, Lewis is coming off a win in his most recent bout.

On May 11, 2024, Lewis won a 3rd-round TKO against Rodrigo Nascimento. That fight took place in St. Louis, MO. Previously, Lewis lost a unanimous decision to Jailton Almeida on November 4, 2023, in Brazil. On July 29, 2023, Lewis won a 1st-round TKO against Marcos Rogerio de Lima in Salt Lake City, UT. However, Lewis lost three previous bouts before that win.

It is understandable why Tallison Teixeira is the favorite in his matchup with Lewis. Texeira has never lost a professional fight. Last time out, Texeira won a 1st-round TKO against Justin Tafa on February 8, 2025, in Sydney, Australia. Previously, Teixeira gained his fame in Dana White’s Contender Series 72. On September 17, 2024, Teixeira won a 1st-round TKO against Arthur Lopes in Las Vegas, NV.
