Derrick Lewis returns Saturday for a home fight, which historically has worked out quite nicely for him. Lewis (22-7 MMA, 13-5 UFC) opens up the UFC 247 main card in a heavyweight tussle with Ilir Latifi (14-7 MMA, 7-5 UFC). Throughout his career, Lewis is 9-0 when he fights in Texas, where he’s lived since he was in his early teens. Against Latifi, he’ll be looking to make it a perfect 10, including 3-0 in UFC fights in the state. UFC 247 takes place Saturday at Toyota Center in Houston. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and early prelims on UFC Fight Pass/ESPN+.
