How can I explain why I recently spent a rainy Saturday in Houston with UFC heavyweight Derrick Lewis, his coach, Bob Perez, his mountainous strength coach, Jimmy Gerland, and a Michael Myers Halloween costume?
We'll come back to that later. Promise.
The point is, if I had to give an explanation, I guess I would say: Lewis is tired of answering stupid questions.
He's faced a lot of stupid questions since the world found out he's fighting Daniel Cormier for the heavyweight title on Saturday, November 3 at UFC 230 in New York. His team and the UFC have been inundated by demand for a few minutes of Lewis' time since he beat Alexander Volkov on October 6 to punch his ticket to the Cormier bout.
