Lewis falls on his own. Tybura mounts him. Lewis powers to his feet and crushes Tybura with a right hand. Don't blink. #UFCAustin

Rooting for Lewis but Tybura just used my favorite sweep #UFCAustin

— Nick Newell (@NotoriousNewell) February 19, 2018

Damn, is Lewis ever in a boring fight. Always pulls a shot out of the bag from an adverse position. #UFCAustin

I hope Lewis wins so we can hear a post fight interview with him #UFCAustin

That round had a bit of everything…slips, reversals, mounts, Lewis treating Tybura's face like a lawn chair. Everything.

Don't go to the mount

"Shimmy Shake!" is the new "head movement!" for 2018 #UFCAustin

Heavyweight fighting makes no sense and it’s so fun to watch because of it.

— Andre Fili (@TouchyFili) February 19, 2018

Derrick Lewis is fun but so flawed. Most of the joy in watching him comes down to how sloppy things get. Marcin Tybura is clearly more skilled and that'll usually determine outcomes.

I like @MarcinTybura top scrambles and transitions at HWT. @ufc #UFCAustin

— Corey Anderson UFC (@CoreyA_MMA) February 19, 2018

Remember when Lewis was making fun of Francis cardio ????????

— Mike "Biggie" Rhodes (@TeamRocBiggie) February 19, 2018

Derrick Lewis so tired he can barely stand, but throws a right head kick for the hell of it. Classic.

— Brett Okamoto (@bokamotoESPN) February 19, 2018

Derrick Lewis with a massive comeback win that will no doubt be followed up by a massive victory speech!

— Aaron Bronsteter (@aaronbronsteter) February 19, 2018

Damn I'll eat my words ??????

— Mike "Biggie" Rhodes (@TeamRocBiggie) February 19, 2018

BEAST!!!! That might be the real #BlackPanther! Lol #UFCAustin

Beaaaaaaaaast!!!!!!!! #ufcaustin

— Belal muhammad (@bullyb170) February 19, 2018

Lewis has the craziest fights. I’ve seen him losing 4 fights in a row and end up winning. Dangerous AF #UFCAustin

— Derek Brunson (@DerekBrunson) February 19, 2018

What a scary man

— Nick Newell (@NotoriousNewell) February 19, 2018

I think @ufc should finally line @Thebeast_ufc vs @francis_ngannou up. I bet neither one of them will be going for takedowns…..@ufc #UFCAustin

— Corey Anderson UFC (@CoreyA_MMA) February 19, 2018
