Talk about a brutal debut. I realize Lawler hasn't fought in a while, but he's known for having exceptional takedown defense.
You'd think the UFC would give him an easy fight against a striker, but then again the UFC and Askren don't exactly have the best history.
Who wins and how?
Lawler is another one who has looked a shadow of himself since USADA. I think Rory was right about him.

I kept thinking about the long term and wishing at that point that his coaches would save their fighters knee but nope....he injured his knee/leg (can't remember which) pretty early on in that fight.
i remember wishing his corner would stop it after round 1 or 2.
I have to confess, I feel the same.I still cant get my head around how good Askren is. This fight will go a long way in helping me do that.
