Prediction: wrong Lawler   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

Just going back through Lawler's career, and this knockout of Tiki is just classic. How did Tiki not die from that follow up right hand? 





In this second Gif, Lawler lands one of the most classic punches ever while being tackled by the ref who pretty much flips over him to stop the fight.

If that second follow up punch would have landed, Tiki would have died.

Lawler hasn't been KO'd/TKO'd in ten years.

Prediction: correct Hendricks   correct Decision  

Both may be somewhat overrated. Actions of judges and referees have been questionable in recent fights, biasing both records. Neither seems easy to T/KO. Both are solid wrestlers, but Hendricks seems stronger, more aggressive, and a busier striker while grappling. This will earn him victory by unanimous decision in at least 4 rounds, as he is more impressive (and already favored, which may further influence judges).

Prediction: wrong Lawler   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

Lawler has only been knocked out once and it was the flash knockout by Nick Diaz. Lawler isn't overrated, underrated if anything. He's inconsistent and has never been mentally strong but his athleticism and offensive.abilities are easily some of the best 170lbs has ever seen. He was destined to be champion but never lived his destiny...Lawler is amazing the trouncing of Rory and the flying knee on Amagov are glimpses of it. He's one experienced dog too.

Before the weigh ins I was pretty positive that Hendricks got this. But then Johny came in shaking like Muhammad Ali and Robbie had dat death stare in his eyes. Ready to kill a man!

And now I don't know anymore. Going with my gut here...

I noticed the shaking more than the.missed weight. They even asked him to stay still and he couldn't....Kind of worried me.
