Sergei Spivak made a statement after defeating Derrick Lewis

With a dominating victory over Derrick Lewis, Moldovan fighter Sergei Spivak would like to see one of the top five in the UFC heavyweight division as his next opponent.

“I was ready for anything,” Polar Bear said at a press conference in Las Vegas. “Today I showed you my judo style, my sambo style, my boxing style, and in the future I will show you even more”

“I trained a lot for this moment. My friend Misha Tsirkunov showed me this triangle choke and we worked hard to get it done. I saw that Derrick is not very stable and he does not have the best grappling. I took advantage of the moment”

“I don’t choose my opponents and I don’t think about ratings. Let the UFC think about it. I’m just waiting. Give me a contract, I’ll sign it, and that’s it. But yeah, I don’t mind fighting someone in the top five. It would be nice”

The heavyweight bout between Spivak and Lewis, headlined at UFC Fight Night 218, ended at 3:05 of the first round with the American defeated by arm triangle choke.
