DERRICK LEWIS surprised UFC fans around the world by MOONING the crowd after returning to winning ways.
The fan favorite extended his record for most UFC knockouts history with a brutal stoppage in the third round of Rodrigo Birth in the main fight of UFC St. Louis in the early hours of this Sunday.
Lewis celebrated his 15th knockout in the main MMA promotion by taking off his shorts, which he did for the first time on the undercard of Conor McGregor’s fight against Khabib Nurmagomedov in 2018.
But he went a step further by blatantly exposing his behind to the fans in attendance at the Enterprise Center.
Lewis delighted fans by pulling down the back of his sweat-covered gray compression shorts before immediately pulling them back up.
Fans in the arena loved the cheeky act, as did those watching at home.
One wrote on X: “The best post-fight interview ever.”
Another said: “This is crazy.”
And another said: “GOAT celebration.”
One commented: “I love how the employees behind him took a step back.”

Another chimed in: “Total solar eclipse.”
One asked with a laughing emoji: “How cool is he?”
Lewis’ flash of his rear end was preceded by him throwing his crotch protection into the media section.
The reporter who picked up the cup took it to the post-fight press conference, where he asked UFC President and CEO Dana White to sign it.
White, 54, saw the funny side of the request and was grateful.
The win over Nasciemnto saw Lewis bounce back from his decision loss to Jailton Almeida last November.
But the fan favorite won’t be rushing back into the Octagon anytime soon, telling Michael Bisping: “I’m going to sit my Black a** down for a second.
“I’m getting too old for this shit. I’m in my prime, but you ain’t seen that shit.
“You don’t see a lot of people in their late 40s doing shit like that.”
