Sweet jesus, those guys are gross.
Come on Robbie please!!!
Lawler getting dominated.
As much as I hate Covington and hope Lawler lands, feck this is impressive. Mixing the strikes in to the takedowns for him is so smooth it’s unreal and it’s the pace.
This is frustrating to watch. Lawler is clearly not the same Lawler of old.
Colby is expert in beating old and worn out fighters. The time he fought a younger guy, he lost.
the future fight with Kamaru gonna be a fun... rude awakening.
These Robbie Lawler punching bags are really realistic.
I do feel like Cruz is right and Lawler has been trying a rope a dope because he’s just been rolling punches and blocking most of them whilst not really throwing. Hopefully he’ll go for it here.
Man he just threw about 20 straight jabs no real power no real snap and he basically landed every one whilst Lawler dicked about. Throw some punches man.
Drumpf Jr.That was sad. The ghost of Robbie Lawler just got schooled. Fair fecks to Colby. Unlikeable outside the cage but definitely deserving of the title shot now.
Interestingly, Covington hasn't finished anyone in his last five fights. Usman should beat him imo.
Some early 90s pro-wrestling promo work from Covington there.
Only because he won the "Interim", i agree (to restore some credibility). Don't make interims unless it's for a unification fight later.
But it's a shame that a victory vs RDA ( a worn out lightweigth) and an old past his prime Lawler will grant you a title shot in a division with beasts like Poniznibio (7 victories streak) or even Edwards (8 victories streak). He should fight one of those first.
but well, feck it, its the same in all divisions. At least its gonna be fun having Kamaru beating the crap out of Colby.
Its going off between Covington and Usman in the interviews.Colby in studio talking to kamaru
I'm going to relish watching Kamaru putting this moron in his place.

RL got schooled. Might be the end of him given the wars he's been in. Really hope Kamaru wrecks Colby. I find him so hard to like.
I find both hard to like.
Fair comment Robbie could be a twunt.I find both hard to like.

Meant kamaru
I want to see Edwards vs Masvidal really bad, so good that Colby won.
Lawler vs Wonderboy in November or December, now is the time.
I cannot understand what Lawlor was playing at. They stood for most of round 5 and Lawlor barely threw a punch. Time to retire I think.
I'd back Usman and even Askren to beat Colby. They could easily live with his dominant wrestling. His stand up isn't up to scratch. He'd probably end up smothering Masvidal like he did RL.

Well not if the fight took place in the MGM. He'd get the grand buffet to the face
Wouldn't be too much interest since both are in decline.
Not every matchup needs to be about contendership. I want to see who's chin is worse at this point.
Agree with that. Covington was impressive and landed a lot of shots, but he doesn't have concussive power, and if you don't get someone out of there with that many punches landed then you're always going to be vulnerable to a KO or a decision against on the acorecards. Id fancy Usman, Woodley and Edwards to beat him.
Plus Lawler looked incredibly hesitant to pull the trigger. Like he was shell shocked or something. Weird.

Niiiicee.
Nice one. Saw Reyes live last year in Chile, when he KO'd Cannonier.
Hopefully you'll see the same. I like Weidman, but he is past it. I hope Reyes wins so he can fight Jones... One of the few fighters that would go in there with the age advantage, plus matching the range and size of Jones.
As for the Zabit/Kattar fight, gonna be fireworks. I can see Kattar getting the best out of the stand up exchanges, but Zabit is master of blending it all together, and his wrestling is legit. Gonna be a good one.
Bizarre propaganda video from the UFC to justify releasing Cyborg.
Dana is the biggest liar alive. No one is buying his bullshit.
