Sergei Pavlovich picked up arguably the biggest win of his career when he took out former heavyweight title challenger Derrick Lewis at UFC 277.
Pavlovich (16-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC) stopped Lewis (26-10 MMA, 17-8 UFC) with a first-round TKO in less than a minute, and though there was controversy around how quickly referee Dan Miragliotta stopped the fight, there’s no denying Pavlovich put some fast offense on Lewis and put him on the canvas with his fists.
At 16-1 with 13 finishes, and 11 in the first round, who should Pavlovich fight next on his ascension up the UFC’s heavyweight ladder – and what’s his ceiling?
That’s what we asked our “Spinning Back Clique” panel of Matthew Wells, Brian “Goze” Garcia and Danny Segura, along with host “Gorgeous” George Garcia.
