The fact that Lawler has been standing in open guard and has absorbed probably over 100 strikes and is totally unphased says everything you need to know about Colby's striking.

It’s been a minute since I’ve screamed at my tv that much lol; good win for Covington; absolute domination; I can’t help, but wonder what that fight would’ve looked like if Lawler was in his prime; he might want to consider retirement.

Man, the irony is that nothing says Beta more than worshiping another man, using his catchphrases and talking just like your hero.  
But I'm pretty sure your too dumb to see the irony in that
