UFC heavyweight Derrick Lewis’ Twitter account is a prime destination for funny videos, jokes and trolls. Hurricane Harvey is none of those.
Lewis (18-5 MMA, 9-3 UFC), a New Orleans native who now lives in Houston, today posted a video showing a tornado spawned by the tropical storm, which made landfall Friday night in Texas.
“A bigger one is on the way behind my house #tornado,” Lewis wrote.
Downgraded to a severe hurricane, Harvey has caused massive flooding and at least one fatality. It also left roads a wreckage of housing materials, signs, and trees, the latter of which Lewis grappled with as a massive branch blocked his car.
Lewis is preparing for a pivotal fight against ex-champ Fabricio Werdum (21-7-1 MMA, 9-4 UFC) at UFC 216. A loss to Mark Hunt in June prompted him to retire, only to change his mind and volunteer for his next fight. UFC 216 takes place Oct. 7 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
We here at The Blue Corner wish “The Black Beast” a safe weekend as he and his family ride out the bad weather.
