Fedor Emelianenko or Phil Davis next for Mo Lawal? 'Whichever one pays the most'

After earning a cool $300,000 paycheck for his victory in the RIZIN heavyweight tournament, "King Mo" Lawal has decided he's okay with getting paid.

So when you ask the former Strikeforce light heavyweight champion which fight he wants next, it's simple: Whichever opponent makes him the most dough.

The 35-year-old Lawal could go ahead with the postponed bout with Bellator's Phil Davis, or he could take on Fedor Emelianenko over in Japan.

Lawal said on Monday's edition of The MMA Hour that he's open to either.

"March or April vs. Fedor or Phil Davis," Lawal said.
