UFC star Derrick Lewis' X-rated response about his wife goes viral
The 40-year-old American never shies away from speaking his mind, on Sunday in Nashville he put his wife on notice with an X-rated reply to Daniel Cormier.
After securing a dominant victory over Tallison Teixeira and extending his record for the most knockouts in UFC history, Lewis was asked what he wants next.
Nobody was expecting the answer that was about to follow.
'I've been gone for two weeks … so I want my wife next,' Lewis said as laughter broke out among those in attendance.
'It's going to be a lot of ground and pound, grounding and pounding … she know what it is. Look at that fine a**.'

Lewis was the headline event at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee in what was his first fight in over a year.
Teixeira on the other hand was chasing his third win inside the past 10 months in his third fight inside the Octagon.
The 25-year-old Brazilian landed a telling left hand in the opening exchanges which appeared to wobble Lewis, but moments later the script was flipped.
As he wiped his right eye and struggled to see, the UFC veteran unloaded a monster right hand that he quickly followed up with a left hook that sent Teixeira to the canvas.
Lewis pounced and unleashed punch after punch as Teixeira attempted to dodge and get back to his feet, but the referee stepped in and waved an end to the bout after only 35 seconds.
Mixed day for Aussies in Nashville
Two fighters out of Australia were on the card in Nashville with mixed results on the day.
Jake Matthews was on the undercard but the rising Aussie showed he is worthy of a main card fight after securing his third-straight win in the Octagon.
After eating a few heavy kicks from Chidi Njokuani, Matthews took his opponent to the mat before he quickly locked in a rear naked choke that forced Njokuani to tap out.
It wasn't to be however for Junior Tafa with the Kiwi born fighter falling to Tuco Tokkos late in the second round.
Tokkos took away Tafa's big strength by taking the fight to the canvas before he locked in an arm-triangle choke.

Baker posted an album of the event on Instagram, captioning it: 'Great times were had by all at the Breaking Bad store this weekend! Thank you all for being there.' A series of pictures was also posted on social media by talent manager Ben Brucato, who had helped arrange the fan experience.

He went on to thank store staff for helping put on the 'amazing event'. Fans were delighted to see the cast back together, with one begging in the comments section: 'Let them have their own show already.' 'You three are my heroes!' added another. 'That's it, I'm watching Breaking Bad again,' one fan wrote. Breaking Bad, which premiered in 2008 and wrapped up in 2013, is widely considered one of the best television shows of all time.

John Goodman shows off slimmed-down figure after 90kg weight loss
John Goodman is feeling good. The 'Roseanne' alum, 73, attended the 'Smurfs' premiere in Los Angeles on Sunday after he dropped 200 pounds on his weight loss journey. Goodman proudly showed off his slimmed-down transformation on the red carpet, posing for photos in a navy blue suit with a dark grey patterned tie and brown loafers. The actor voices Papa Smurf in the animated musical film directed by Chris Miller, the New York Post reports. The star-studded cast also includes Rihanna, James Corden, Nick Offerman, Dan Levy, Amy Sedaris, Natasha Lyonne, Sandra Oh and Hannah Waddingham. At his heaviest, Goodman weighed 392 pounds before he kicked off his fitness journey in 2007. One of the first times he debuted his 200-pound weight loss was on the red carpet at the 62nd Monte-Carlo TV festival in June 2023. With the help of help of personal trainer Mackie Shilstone, Goodman lost the weight by giving up alcohol, making several dietary changes including adopting a Mediterranean diet, and maintaining a consistent workout regimen that involved taking 10,000 to 12,000 steps a day and using an elliptical bicycle and treadmill. 'It takes a lot of creative energy to sit on your ass and figure out what you're going to eat next,' Goodman told People magazine in 2010. 'I wanted to live life better.' In 2016, he told ABC, 'I'd have a handful of food and it'd go to my mouth. I was just eating all the time. I was just eating alcoholically.' 'In the old days, I would take three months out, lose 60 or 70 pounds, and then reward myself with a 6-pack of Bud or whatever and just go back to my old habits,' he continued. 'Then this time I wanted to do it slowly, move, exercise. I'm getting to the age where I can't afford to sit still anymore. And it gives me the energy to work, 'cause work is very draining.' Goodman recently wrapped up his role as Dan Conner on 'The Conners.' The 'Roseanne' spin-off aired its series finale in April, and the closing scene featured Goodman sitting alone in the family living room and saying 'goodnight' directly to the camera. Executive producer and showrunner Bruce Helford told New York Post that the final scene was Goodman's idea. 'The Conners' aired for seven seasons from 2018 to 2025 after Roseanne Barr's controversial tweets got the 'Roseanne' revival axed. In a recent interview with the Hollywood Reporter, Goodman revealed he hasn't spoken to Barr, 72, in 'about seven or eight years.' 'I'd rather doubt if she wants to talk to me,' the 'Righteous Gemstones' added.
