Throughout the fight week, Lewis (26-10) appeared to be in good shape. On Friday, he made weight. His third outing of 2022 would have occurred here. After two knockout defeats, he was fresh off the mat. To compete in his debut UFC main event, even Spivak (15-3) was eager. The heavyweight from Moldova has an Octagon record of 6-3.

Ion Cutelaba and Kennedy Nzechukwu’s bout at light heavyweight will now be the show’s finale.
