The Bridgestone Arena will host a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it main event on Saturday, owing to the fact Lewis and Teixeira have fashioned their careers out of their abilities to finish things in a flash.

Teixeira, 25, announced himself to the wider MMA community in February when he made his UFC debut with a vicious 35-second knockout of fellow heavyweight Justin Tafa in Sydney:

The Brazilian is now hoping to add to that achievement with another big finish in Nashville, but Lewis may not be the most accommodating of opposition.

The Black Beast hasn’t fought in more than a year, but his TKO victory over Rodrigo Nascimento in May 2024 extended his record for the most knockout wins in UFC history (15).

That being said, 40-year-old Lewis hasn’t recorded back-to-back wins since 2020/21 and could struggle to withstand Teixeira’s early pace if he storms out of the blocks early.
