#2 Derrick Lewis
Lewis looks to avoid back-to-back losses for the first time in his career when he faces off against Tybura in the evening's co-main event. "The Black Beast" looked like he was on the fast track to a heavyweight title shot, before a fourth-round knockout loss to Mark Hunt at UFC Fight Night 110 halted those aspirations. The 33-year-old looked to erase that loss against former champion Fabricio Werdum at UFC 216 in October, however, an injury just hours before fight time forced him off the card.
Now Lewis faces another rising heavyweight in Marcin Tybura, who also had his three-fight win streak snapped in a unanimous decision setback against Fabricio Werdum at UFC Fight Night 121 in November. Through 19-career fights, Tybura has only been finished once and that was due to injury.
