An exciting Heavyweight bout headlines tonight’s UFC Fight Night. No. 9 Derrick Lewis is facing No. 13 Tallison Teixeira in a five-round contest. This event takes place in Nashville, Tennessee, at the Bridgestone Arena.

The veteran Lewis is a big +260 underdog as Teixeira is the favorite at -325 on DraftKings Sportsbook. This fight has an over/under of 1.5 with the under being -188. Teixeira is -185 to win this bout via KO/TKO/DQ, while Lewis is +300 to pick up the victory by knockout.
