Twitter reacts to UFC Fight Night 126: Cowboy scores violent KO, Nate Diaz nearly lights joint, Derrick Lewis said what?

UFC Fight Night 126 in Austin, Texas was a wonderful event in the sense that it didn't boast much in star power, except of course, for Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone.

Regardless, the event delivered tons of action, as Derrick Lewis scored a brutal third round KO of Marcin Tybura. Furthermore, several fights ended by way of KO/TKO or submission. Also, a certain Nate Diaz was caught up in the lines of controversy yet again.

So, without further ado, let's check out the best of what the Twitterverse had to say.

Derrick Lewis: What them know about them Texas boys?To Jimmy Smith: That's the way I fight. I know you're new to the game, coming over from Bellator but that's the way I do it baby.To his significant other: To my baby, April, better get ready girl, I'm going deep.#UFCAustin

I’m not sure what was better between Nate Diaz wit a joint in his mouth or the Black Beast telling his ol’ lady that tn he’s “going deep!”#UFCAustin
