Lewis earned a “Performance of the Night” award for his third-round stoppage of Marcin Tybura in the heavyweight co-main event at the Frank Erwin Center in Austin, Texas. “The Black Beast” appeared to be on the verge of losing a decision to his grappling-minded foe before he turned the tide with a massive right hook that had Tybura clinging to a leg out of desperation. Lewis polished off his opponent with more follow-up punches at the 2:48 mark of the frame.

Elsewhere, Millender made his Octagon debut in style, scoring a second-round knockout of former title challenger Thiago Alves in a featured welterweight bout to garner the evening’s other “Performance of the Night” bonus. The ex-Bellator talent nearly finished his opponent in the opening stanza before dispatching “Pitbull” with a knee to the jaw 4:17 into round two.

Finally, Davis and Peterson captured “Fight of the Night” honors for their three-round featherweight duel. Punching and kicking combinations proved to be the difference for Davis, who put his adversary on wobbly legs with a knee in the third round. While Peterson stayed in the fight throughout, it was Davis who emerged with a unanimous decision triumph.
