UFC Sao Paulo witnessed an exciting night of fights on Saturday, November 4, 2023, at the Ibirapuera Gymnasium in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The event, exclusively aired on ESPN+, featured a thrilling Heavyweight bout as Jailton Almeida secured a dominant unanimous decision victory over Derrick Lewis.

Almeida showcased his skills and emerged as the biggest winner of the night. With this win, he not only earned the biggest victory of his UFC career but also extended his impressive win streak to 15 consecutive victories. Almeida's performance inside the Octagon has been outstanding, as he remains unbeaten with a 6-0 record. While Almeida proved to be dominant on the ground, some critics felt that he could have been more aggressive in securing a finish. Nevertheless, his win will undoubtedly boost his position in the rankings.

Another standout performer of the night was Nicolas Dalby. In the co-main event, Dalby impressed the crowd with a stunning technical knockout (TKO) victory over Gabriel Bonfim. This win marked Dalby's fourth victory in just 17 months, solidifying his status as a force to be reckoned with in the Welterweight division. With a current UFC record of 6-1-1, Dalby's consistency in winning fights puts him in contention for a potential ranking. Notably, he also walked away with a well-deserved $50,000 bonus for earning "Fight of the Night" honors.

On the other side, Derrick Lewis faced a tough defeat at the hands of Almeida. Unable to find an answer for his opponent's takedowns, Lewis struggled throughout the fight. Although he showed improved submission defense, preventing Almeida from securing several attempts, Lewis was mostly controlled on the ground, leaving him in a challenging position. With this loss, Lewis now holds a record of 1-4 in his last five fights and 2-5 in his last seven outings. The setback might lead to a drop in his ranking, further diminishing his chances of reaching another title fight in the Heavyweight division.
