Last Friday, the 37-year-old American fighter was spotted jogging, and judging by the current dimensions of the Black Beast, he could try his hand at light heavyweight.
Derrick Lewis lost two fights in a row, losing by knockouts to Tai Tuivasa and Sergey Pavlovich, and his fight against Sergey Spivak on February 4 will headline UFC Fight Night 218 in Las Vegas.
The heavyweights were supposed to meet back in November last year, however, at the last moment their fight was canceled due to the emergency hospitalization of the American.
Currently, Derrick Lewis and Sergey Spivak are ranked seventh and twelfth in the UFC heavyweight rankings, respectively.
