Cortes-Acosta aims to KO Derrick Lewis

    Waldo Cortes-Acosta is set to meet former title challenger Derrick Lewis on the UFC 324 main card this Saturday at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

    The rising heavyweight contender is reportedly planning to hunt for a stoppage against the veteran who holds the UFC knockout record.

    With Tom Aspinall sidelined by an eye issue, an interim heavyweight title is being discussed and this fight could factor into that decision.

    Cortes-Acosta is said to be willing to take an interim-title opportunity but has indicated he does not want to remain inactive if a clear path to a belt doesn't materialize.

    The matchup is viewed as a significant measuring stick for Cortes-Acosta's standing in the division.
