Derrick Lewis delivered the goods last night (Sat., May 11, 2024) at UFC St. Louis live on ESPN from inside Enterprise Center in St. Louis, Missouri, as “Black Beast” put a vicious stop to Rodrigo Nascimento in the main event. The UFC’s all-time leader in knockouts battered Nascimento in the third round before claiming his finish, removing his shorts, throwing his cup into media row, and mooning the crowd (see it all HERE).
In addition to the heavyweight headliner, UFC St. Louis produced a collection of high-level knockouts and submissions. Check them out below and let us know which ones stood out the most:
