On track for greatest career resurrection eva.
Absolutely Robbie always goes out on his shield! Always loved watching him fight, and trained with him a few times as well. Love his fight with Trigg.
Man, woodley x lawler would be great. The 170 division just got a lot more interesting this weekend.
Put him up against either Condit or Matt Brown after they fight. Those three always come to scrap. Any matchups between those guys will be guaranteed epic.
He did great against Rory. In Rory's past few fights I've been growing to dislike him. Instead of finishing people he's been point fighting and getting boring just like gsp. And what's this talk about Rory fighting gsp at some point ? Sorry but gsp would run him I think. Props to Robby for closing the distance and making it a fight
Robbie looks awesome! He probably had a lot of pressure on him when he was young, training under Matt Hughes/Miletch. It seems like now Robbie doesn't give a fuck and is just there to fight. I'd love to see him against Hector Lombard now that Lombard is at 170. Either of those two against Henricks will be cool to.

I was rooting for him but wasn't sure he would pull it off. Really stoke to see Lawler doing so well this run in the UFC.Quote:

Hipster's have no heart, Robbie broke him towards the end. He is dangerous at 170.
I don't like Rory. I acknowledge his skills, but I believe him to be overrated. The last few fights that I can think of where he shined were against two true 155'ers (Nate and BJ), and a guy who has no ground game. Granted, he looked great, but then his last fight, he looked safe. Then in this fight he tried the same. But Robbie is no Ellenberger. Robbie would rather go out in a blaze of glory. I was very pleased that Robbie took the W.
