What an absurd exchange there between Lewis/Dos Santos. That's some beautiful heavyweight action. #UFCWichita

JDS tries another winging right hand, Lewis slips. Hard back kick to the gut and Lewis fakes doubling over and crushes JDS with a right as JDS steps in. Lewis still hurt to the body and JDS goes after him now and is pummeling him with punches. #UFCWIchita
