DERRICK LEWIS JOKES ABOUT RECENT ARREST: “NAH, I DON’T EVEN THINK THAT WAS ME”

Derrick Lewis headlines this weekend’s UFC Fight Night Sao Paulo card, facing Jailton Almeida in the main event.

A few days before heading to Sao Paulo, Lewis was arrested in Harris County (Texas) for allegedly driving 80+ MPH over the speed limit, but was released from jail after posting a $100 bond.

Lewis, when asked about the legal matter, didn’t seem to be taking the matter too seriously.

“Nah, I don’t even think that was me,” Lewis told reporters in a media scrum (transcript via Mike Bohn of MMA Junkie). “That guy had hair. You seen the picture? I don’t got no hair. That ain’t me.”

The UFC star is expected back in court on December 27.
