Derrick Lewis has been taken the distance his last two times out, but managed to have his hand raised in each of those fights.

The veteran heavyweight will now look to make it three straight victories when he faces Aleksei Oleinik in the headliner of the UFC Fight Night card at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas on Saturday, Aug. 8.

The 35-year-old Lewis (23-7) bounced back from losses to Daniel Cormier and Junior dos Santos with a split decision win over Blagoy Ivanov in November and a unanimous nod over Ilir Latifi in February. That being said, he may have his hands full with a game Oleinik (59-13-1), who will be looking to secure his 60th professional victory.

Oleinik, 43, has also rebounded from back-to-back losses (to Alistair Overeem and Walt Harris) and is riding a two-fight winning streak himself in this late career surge. The Russian submitted Maurice Greene with a second-round armbar in January before earning a split decision over Fabrício Werdum in May in what has been a momentum-building 2020 for the fighter.

Which combatant will push his winning streak to three and further himself along in the heavyweight ranks? MMA fans will find out this weekend with the next installment of UFC Fight Night, whose co-main event pits Omari Akhmedov vs. Chris Weidman in middleweight action.
