The UFC’s return to St. Louis after more than six years went down Saturday at Enterprise Center, with UFC on ESPN 56 providing mixed results in terms of entertainment with seven decisions and five finishes. One of those stoppages came in the main event, where Derrick Lewis (28-12 MMA, 19-10 UFC) showed once again why he’s UFC’s all-time knockout record holder by stopping Rodrigo Nascimento (11-2 MMA, 4-2 UFC) in the third round of their heavyweight headliner.
