During his Octagon interview with Joe Rogan at UFC 229, Derrick Lewis expressed his hesitation to fight for the title just yet. “The Black Beast” stated that he was unsure if his cardio and conditioning would be able to suffice for such an elite contest.

“I’ve been doing nothing but cardio. Even the sex,” Lewis said (transcript via MMA Fighting).
