Odd that lawler sorta just stands in one spot doing some sort of bob and weave shelling up defence.

I'm hoping that just Robbie being aware its 5 rounds and "diaz has cardio".   I'm not sure this Diaz does, hence the quotes lol

Erm, this is awesome. But it's starting to feel like Diaz is just trying to keep Lawler off of him.

Lawler winning a close decision will be the dumbest most meaningless possible outcome. Diaz wins the heroic comeback, or Lawler crushes him and sends him back to retirement. Those are the options!

I get the feeling Robbie waited till the third to turn it on whether to negate cardio issues or to make it more of a fight I don't know
