AUSTIN, Texas – UFC heavyweight Derrick Lewis might have looked like he was on the brink of collapse while in deep waters against Marcin Tybura . But Lewis said he was just waiting to pounce. “I’m sure my fans know by now, even though I might be getting my ass whooped the first two rounds, but you know that ‘Beast’ about to come out sooner or later,” he told MMAjunkie. In this case, it was much later. By any indication, Lewis (19-5-1 MMA, 10-3 UFC) was just about two minutes away from losing a decision to Tybura (16-4 MMA, 3-3 UFC) in the FS1-televised headliner of Sunday’s UFC Fight Night 126, which took place at Frank Erwin Center in Austin, Texas.
