Lewis likens Cortes-Acosta to Nelson

    Derrick Lewis downplayed Waldo Cortes-Acosta, saying the rising heavyweight's approach feels familiar and comparing it to Roy Nelson.

    The matchup is slated for Saturday on the UFC 324 main card at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

    Cortes-Acosta arrives as a hot prospect while Lewis remains a veteran test for contenders.

    Lewis reportedly insists he poses a different challenge than other heavyweights and still has energy to compete.

    With champion Tom Aspinall reportedly sidelined by eye injuries, Lewis said he's open to an interim-title opportunity.
