"She ain’t give me a**" - When Derrick Lewis angered his wife by hitting on Ronda Rousey after knocking out her then-fiance
Derrick Lewis once angered his wife by hilariously hitting on Ronda Rousey moments after a knockout victory.
Back in 2017, Lewis went up against Ronda Rousey's fiance at the time, Travis Browne. 'The Black Beast' earned a second-round knockout victory over Browne, and he proceeded to hit on Rousey during his post-fight octagon interview.
Lewis said:
“Forget that guy [Travis Browne], I got much more heart than he has. Where is Ronda Rousey fine a** at?”
Derrick Lewis' comments didn't do him a great deal of favor as he ended up upsetting his wife. In the build-up to his fight with Marcin Tybura in 2018, Lewis stated that his wife imposed a sex ban on him. In an interview with TMZ Sports, he said:
“My wife, she’s mad, she ain’t give me a** ever since I mentioned her in that last interview. I have to get this win, so I can buy her something nice and hopefully I’ll get some a** next week.”

As far as the fight against Marcin Tybura goes, Lewis was able to secure yet another knockout, this time in the third round.
Derrick Lewis could face up to a month in prison after his recent arrest
Derrick Lewis was recently arrested in Houston, Texas, just days before his fight against Jailton Almeida at UFC Sao Paulo. He allegedly drove a Lamborghini at 136 miles per hour in a 50 miles per hour zone.
While Lewis was released after paying a $100 "personal recognizance" bond, he could end up facing up to a month in prison if found guilty. As per an X post by MMA journalist Marc Raimondi, 'The Black Beast' will have to stand before a judge on December 27:
"The next court date for Derrick Lewis is Dec. 27 following his reckless driving arrest. The maximum sentence if convicted is 30 days in jail and a $200 fine. But most of these cases result in the defendant just going to a driver’s safety course, per the Harris County DA’s office."

Lewis' recent arrest did not hinder his upcoming fight against Jailton Almedia. The two will lock horns in Sao Paolo later this weekend in a highly anticipated heavyweight clash.
