Derrick Lewis' Most Satisfying KO

Jamie, I'm gonna send you something. Is me reacting to him knocking out Volkov? This is one of my favorite, one of my favorite clips because that knockout was so crazy. We were in the middle. Here it is. I'm gonna set it to you right now, Jamie. Yeah, I just airdropped it to you. Why is it not working? Alright, is it going through? I've got two Jamie Berners here. You have my computer. Okay. I'll try both of them. You got it? Okay. So that fight to me was a perfect example of one of the reasons why people love you. Is because at any moment in the fight, you get in that shit. And that was a fight where you were behind on the judge's scorecards and we were just saying it doesn't matter. Like at any moment, Derek could knock him out. Like that's the thing that's exciting about you. But the UFC, because we go so crazy, the UFC has decided to put these cameras on us. Give me some volume on this. Oh, look at everybody go crazy. We were going crazy. I had to get up. I had to stand up. I couldn't take it. That was so nuts. My coach, my manager, my manager at home, he fainted. Lou, Lou say fainted. He couldn't take it either. No more. Everyone was just so pumped about that. And I heard that some police was called because my neighbors, our fans was just going crazy. That was wild. That was one of the best come from behind knockouts ever. But it was wild too, because we just got done saying like, don't count them out. At any moment, he could knock them out and then boom, you catch him with a big punch and then drop them and then boom, put them away. We went nuts. I like whenever my coach said, OK, we got a minute left, 30 seconds left. Then I'm like, OK, try to gain. So I got I have to let everything out. A lot of my fights I finished in the last few seconds of the fight. So I like the weight, the last minute or last two minutes left to really show what I got left in my tank. But that shows your hard work that you can keep that power in like deep into the fight. That means you did the work in a gym. Like you still have the gas. Yeah. Yeah. Was that your most satisfying knockout? That was. Yeah. The crowd made it real exciting and satisfying because the way they reacted, then seeing that one guy that played in the one movie. Groot, Groot, what movie is that? Guardians of the Galaxy? Oh, Chris Pratt? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He's seen his reaction. It was like it made it all work. Yeah. Yeah. No, that was a big one. That was a big one. Yeah. I wish the fans was here for the Curtis fight. I'm pretty sure they would have went crazy for that one too. One hundred percent. I screamed in my house. I screamed in my house. My wife. Every now and then in a fight. Like, you know, when I'm watching fights at home, I scream and then my wife has to realize I'm watching fights because I'm by myself in the theater. Go. Oh, yeah. That was that was one that for sure would have got a giant reaction from the crowd. Yeah. Is it? Yeah. So what is like do you have a favorite moment as a fighter or do you have you have so many knockouts? Yeah, you're the most knockouts ever in the heavyweight division. Yeah, it's crazy because I wasn't really going for that. My favorite one, it has to be Vokov Vokov because I was telling my coaches in my camp before that fight. It's like I'm fighting a Russian guy. It'd be cool if I could get one of those rocket type fights and show enough. So crazy, so crazy. And it just like a rocket movie. Yeah, there it is. Oh, my goodness. That was crazy. They're like a few minutes before that he's I hit him and he's saying his mouthpiece was my mouthpiece. I said, no, that's not my mouthpiece. I say, OK, I guess that that was pitched that that kale back up to the right hand again. It drops them. That shit was picture perfect. Here it is. Boom. I mean, timing, distance, everything. It was picture perfect. And the fact that you did this deep into the fight. Look at this. Yeah, this is it feels surreal watching yourself. Oh, yeah. All the time. All the time. When you watch yourself on television, like what goes through your head when you see something like this? I'm like, man, I don't look that fat in person. I don't look fat when I watch my highlight. Like, when you see me in person, like you lost some weight. No, I ain't losing a weight. That's the TV. The problem is the Fox Sports. Fox Sports ESPN, I think I look a little smaller now. Fox Sports cameras make me look fat. I think everybody thinks they look fat when they see themselves on television. I think I look fat when I walk by a mirror. I'm like, come on, really? There's all this shit. But, you know, if you do drop down to, you know, whatever you want to get to the 240 or two, maybe maybe then you can see a little six pack. Yeah. And, you know, I walk around. I walk around with no shirt, but now I don't like walking around with shirt. What? No shirt in front of my sons. My boys always call me fat. Because they got six packs. So I make it seem like they don't bother me, but I go cry in the room. You can listen to the JRE in the background while using other apps and can download episodes to save on data costs all for free.
