UFC FN: Lewis vs Teixeira (Predictions)

UFC returns to Nashville, Tennessee on Saturday, July 12, 2025, with a hard-hitting lineup live from Bridgestone Arena. The main card begins at 6PM PT, headlined by a heavyweight showdown between Derrick Lewis and undefeated rising force Tallison Teixeira.

Now for the fun stuff: Derrick “The Black Beast” Lewis is back to remind everyone that punching is, in fact, an art form—especially when delivered with sledgehammer-like precision. He’s up against Tallison Teixeira, who recently steamrolled Justin Tafa in 35 seconds flat. Lewis may be 40, but his right hand still runs on primal energy. Don’t blink. Seriously.
Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson brings his karate chaos to the co-main against Gabriel Bonfim, who may or may not be a grappler… or a striker… or both. Elsewhere: Calvin Kattar just wants a win (and probably dinner), Landwehr vs. Charrière promises flailing limbs and fireworks, and the heavyweights are lining up to turn the canvas into a demolition zone. You’ve been warned.
