UFC Vegas 68: Derrick Lewis vs. Sergey Spivak live results.

It’s going to be a late one for those on the east coast of the U.S., as an early-morning UFC Vegas 68 card takes place at the UFC APEX tonight. topped by a heavyweight collision featuring Derrick Lewis and Sergey Spivak.

The card’s late start time of 1 a.m. ET (10 p.m. ET for prelims) can be attributed to the UFC’s desire to hold tonight’s card in Seoul, South Korea. Though the card was moved to the UFC APEX, the card’s time remained to favor the targeted audience.

Though Lewis, currently ranked No. 7 at heavyweight in the UFC, remains a popular and entertaining figure in the UFC’s heavyweight division, he may be in a must-win scenario here. After a four-fight win streak between 2019 and 2021, “The Black Beast” has now lost three of his last four, including knockout losses in both fights he had in 2022 against Tai Tuivasa and Sergei Pavlovich.

After a 1-2 start to his time in the Octagon, Spivak, the No. 12 ranked UFC heavyweight, has now won five of his last six fights, most recently scoring a second-round finish of Augusto Sakai in August.
