Main event
The Black Beast Lewis comes into this fight fresh off a heavyweight title bout loss to Daniel Cormier. Before suffering that third round submission defeat at UFC 230 in November last year, third ranked Lewis recorded impressive wins over Alex Volkov (KO), Francis Ngannou (decision) and Marcin Tybura (TKO) in 2018.
The former heavyweight champion 'Cigano' Dos Santos, meanwhile is 2-0 since losing the title to Stipe Miocic in 2017. After dropping the title, Dos Santos defeated Blagoy Ivanov in 2018 and followed that with a second round TKO of Tai Tuivasa later that year.
Both men are known for their finishing ability. Lewis (10) is currently tied at the top of the heavyweight knock out chart with Cain Velasquez, while Dos Santos is right behind with nine knock out wins. So, this fight has all the potential to end in stoppage. Will it be Cigano leveling or Lewis breaking the record? Find out this weekend.

Co-main event
As far as the co-headliner is concerned, Zaleski is on a six-fight winning streak since his UFC debut loss to Nicols Dalby which came way back in 2015. The Brazilian has three stoppage wins with two of them coming very recently against Sean Strickland and Luigi Vendramini.
Meanwhile, Zaleski's opponent for this weekend, Millender comes into the bout on the back of nine wins in MMA. Since signing with UFC, 'Curtious' Millender has lived up to the hype with wins over Thiago Alves, Max Griffin and Siyar Bahadurzada. So, this bout makes it unpredictable as both fighters are on a undefeated streak.
