A veteran UFC fighter has gone viral after delivering an explicit response regarding his wife during a post-fight interview on Sunday.

UFC cult hero Derrick Lewis was at it again on Sunday, delivering another viral moment during a post-fight interview.

The 40-year-old American never shies away from speaking his mind, on Sunday in Nashville he put his wife on notice with an X-rated reply to Daniel Cormier.

After securing a dominant victory over Tallison Teixeira and extending his record for the most knockouts in UFC history, Lewis was asked what he wants next.

Nobody was expecting the answer that was about to follow.

“I’ve been gone for two weeks … so I want my wife next,” Lewis said as laughter broke out among those in attendance.

“It’s going to be a lot of ground and pound, grounding and pounding … she know what it is. Look at that fine a**.”

Derrick Lewis' wife could only laugh at his response.

Lewis was the headline event at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee in what was his first fight in over a year.

Teixeira on the other hand was chasing his third win inside the past 10 months in his third fight inside the Octagon.

The 25-year-old Brazilian landed a telling left hand in the opening exchanges which appeared to wobble Lewis, but moments later the script was flipped.

As he wiped his right eye and struggled to see, the UFC veteran unloaded a monster right hand that he quickly followed up with a left hook that sent Teixeira to the canvas.

Lewis pounced and unleashed punch after punch as Teixeira attempted to dodge and get back to his feet, but the referee stepped in and waved an end to the bout after only 35 seconds.

Mixed day for Aussies in Nashville

Two fighters out of Australia were on the card in Nashville with mixed results on the day.

Jake Matthews was on the undercard but the rising Aussie showed he is worthy of a main card fight after securing his third-straight win in the Octagon.

After eating a few heavy kicks from Chidi Njokuani, Matthews took his opponent to the mat before he quickly locked in a rear naked choke that forced Njokuani to tap out.

It wasn’t to be however for Junior Tafa with the Kiwi born fighter falling to Tuco Tokkos late in the second round.

Tokkos took away Tafa’s big strength by taking the fight to the canvas before he locked in an arm-triangle choke.
