Derrick Lewis improved on his UFC knockout record with a 35-second finish of Tallison Teixeira in the main event of UFC Nashville. With the heavyweight division in a weird place following Jon Jones' retirement, and Tom Aspinall getting promoted to undisputed UFC heavyweight champion, is it possible that "The Black Beast" may have punched his ticket to a title fight? Following a very fun UFC Fight Night event on Saturday night, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to Lewis' victory, the stoppage and if it was the right call, and if Lewis could find himself in a fight with Aspinall next. Additionally, they discuss the scorecards in the co-main event between Gabriel Bonfim and Stephen Thompson, Calvin Kattar suffering his fifth consecutive loss, Valter Walker's impressive streak of heel hook submissions, and much more.
