UFC Fight Night Results: Sergey Spivak Makes Statement

The UFC started off February with a late-night event, as UFC Fight Night 218 took place. The action aired live on ESPN+ from the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.

Sergey Spivak took out his biggest challenge to date, submitting Derrick Lewis in the first round. The heavyweight landed an early shot and pounced, dragging Lewis to the mat multiple times before securing the submission.

The 28-year-old moved to 16-3 in his career and picked up his third consecutive finish, with this being his seventh UFC victory overall.

In the co-main event, Jung Da-un and Devin Clark battled for 15 minutes in the light heavyweight division, with Clark being declared the winner in the end. The veteran sealed the deal with a takedown in the final seconds of the match.

Heavyweights were also part of the other action, as Marcin Tybura bested Blagoy Ivanov via decision. Choi Doo-ho and Kyle Nelson battled to a majority draw in a featherweight scrap.

Adam Fugitt kicked off the main card with an impressive first round finish of Yusaku Kinoshita.

The finals in the Road to UFC Tournament were part of the prelims, as Anshul Jubli, Lee Jeong-yeong, Rinya Nakamura and Park Hyin-sung were victorious. The tournament featured fighters from Asia competing for UFC contracts.

Also, Laura Sanko made history, becoming the first female color commentator on a UFC event in the modern era.
