Fans are sickened as the UFC posts a "horrendous" poster of José Aldo for his boxing debut; Calls out the UFC for their half-baked effort.

The fans are counting down the days until they can see Aldo throw some punches and prove that he’s got what it takes to be a multi-disciplined fighter. I never hid that from anyone.” He also added, “It was always a dream. The 36-year-old once revealed that boxing has always been a dream of his. They feel that the UFC could have done a way better job with the poster and are absolutely disgusted by how they conducted themselves.

Derrick Lewis is officially on the worst losing streak of his career.The UFC fan favourite was hoping to get back on track by beating Sergey Spivak in.

[UFC 285](https://talksport.com/sport/mma/1306493/ufc-285-jon-jones-vs-ciryl-gane-date-uk-start-time-fight-card-live-stream-tv-channel/) on March 4. ‘Polar Bear’ is here, ‘Polar Bear’ is coming. He’s great, he’s a legend for me.

Check out the full fight video highlights of Derrick Lewis vs. Serghei Spivac from the UFC Vegas 68 main event.

He holds a 1-0 record in pro MMA and holds a purple belt in Jiu-Jitsu. He maintains control as Lewis tries to get up, but gets taken down again. Lewis tries to get up, but gives up his back. Lewis feints and gets a reaction. He would force Lewis to carry his weight, and as soon as he stood up, Spivac would hit a trip to get back on top. Spivac leaned into his wrestling advantage right away, hitting a gorgeous hip toss to get on top.

After the biggest win of his career, Serghei Spivac is more than happy to take a little time off.

He was a great champion and he’s still a great champion, in my opinion. Give me a contract, I (sign) it, and that’s it. “I don’t choose my opponents and I don’t think about (rankings),” Spivac said. My friend Misha Cirkunov showed me this triangle choke and we worked a lot for this moment. I trained a lot for this moment. Fast forward to now, and Spivac wouldn’t mind a chance to chill, even though he said he’s likely to be right back in the gym, no matter what.

Win or lose, Lewis has typically been competitive except with the most elite of the division. While Serghei Spivac is a good fighter – and still improving – I ...

He snapped Nakamura’s head back with a couple of his strikes, turning in the most exciting contest of the evening in the process. Marcin Tybura and Blagoy Ivanov: It wasn’t a surprise to anyone that these two heavyweights put on the most miserable fight of the evening. But he also fought the best fight he could in hopes of securing the win over the heavily favored Nakamura. To be fair to Nelson, he did have the most complete performance of his UFC career, hurting Choi a couple of times and not completely gassing down the stretch. The first one to earn a UFC contract on the evening, Park showed a real killer instinct, aggressively pursuing a finish after being put on his ass in the second round by Seung Guk Choi. Regardless, Nakamura picked up the contract and appears to have the highest ceiling of all the newcomers on this card. What put Lee over the top is he did more damage with his strikes as opposed to Yi’s emphasis on wrestling and control. Only the second fighter to step foot in the Octagon from the second most populous country in the world, Jubli had a plan and executed it to perfection. Anshul Jubli: Perhaps the most ready-made product from the Road to the UFC, Jubli fought with a maturity that you wouldn’t expect from someone from India. As to the reason for the late start, several promising talents out of Asia were crowned winners from the Road to the UFC tournament. Perhaps it was a good thing for many as perennial fan favorite Derrick Lewis suffered perhaps the most humiliating loss of his career. The first few contests were competing with Fedor Emelianenko’s retirement fight – which I have to admit I switched to myself without missing any of the UFC action – and it had a horrible time slot.

I'm taking this very seriously, and I'm moving toward the gold,” Spivak said after tapping out Derrick Lewis at UFC Fight Night.

Dana White says Derrick Lewis' position on the UFC roster in not in jeopardy despite being "manhandled" at UFC Fight Night 218.

And if ...

Serghei Spivac made relatively short work of Derrick Lewis in a battle of heavyweights in the main event of UFC Fight Night 218 on Saturday in Las Vegas.

Welterweight Adam Fugitt (9-3) secured a KO/TKO over Japan’s Yusaku Kinoshita (6-2) at 4:36 of the first round via strikes.

Alex Volkanovski will fight for his second UFC title this weekend but there's so much more at stake for Australia's greatest-ever MMA fighter.

Ask him about the man whose title he wants to take and Emmett sounds like a longtime fan. A loss to Makhachev wouldn't change what's already happened. "I've had an eye on him for a long time. Plenty of people might count him out but I'm not." He is, in the tradition established by Nurmagomedov, a wrecking machine. Men who entered the UFC long before him speak of the Windang product with something close to reverence.
