Besides the main attraction of Lewis vs. Nascimento, UFC on ESPN 56 will feature thrilling welterweight knockout artist Joaquin Buckley, who campaigned to feature on the card, taking on streaking Uzbek Nursulton Ruziboev who has, thus far, authored a 10-fight win streak, including two victories in the UFC.
The bout is expected to produce fireworks, as both men are finishers. However, the card is lacking in star power. Nevertheless, there are notable fighters scheduled for the event, such as heavyweight Cuban Olympian Robelis Despaigne.
He faces Waldo Cortes-Acosta in the opening bout of the main card, which is another matchup expected to produce a stoppage.
Derrick Lewis and Rodrigo Nascimento are heading into UFC on ESPN 56 at different points in their careers
Derrick Lewis is the greatest knockout artist in UFC history, holding the promotion's all-time records for knockouts and TKOs. Unfortunately, his form has dipped as of late. He is currently 2-5 in his last seven fights, having not been on a win streak since 2021.
Rodrigo Nascimento, however, is much younger and on a three-fight win streak. He is looking to move deeper into the top 15 with a win over the former interim heavyweight title challenger, who no longer features in the divisional top 10. Nonetheless, Derrick Lewis remains a -170 favorite over Nascimento, a +145 underdog.
