The main event at today’s UFC Fight Night is a heavyweight match between two veteran fighters with long, well-established records in the division. Derrick Lewis, fighting out of the United States, boasts a record of 23 wins and seven losses and is currently ranked fourth on the UFC heavyweight roster. His opponent, Aleksei Oleinik, has been competing in professional MMA since 1997 and holds a whopping 59 wins under his belt, with only 13 losses by comparison.

Oleinik is still fighting at age 43, but the years don’t seem to have slowed him down too much: He’s entering the Octagon tonight following two recent victories, and so is the 35-year-old Lewis. Interestingly, neither of them has held a heavyweight title (although Lewis unsuccessfully challenged for it at UFC 230 in 2018, a fight he lost to Daniel Cormier). Both men no doubt have their sights fixed on a title shot following this battle, and the winner of this main event at UFC Fight Night: Lewis vs. Oleinik will be one step closer to a heavyweight championship bout.
