Robbie Lawler shrugged off plenty of big shots during his epic UFC 189 encounter with Rory MacDonald back in 2015. Now, he’s shrugging off a few more.
Lawler’s memorable victory over MacDonald was thrust under the microscope in August when the Bellator star wrote in a Reddit AMA that he was “convinced” Lawler was taking performance-enhancing drugs for the pair’s championship rematch at UFC 189. MacDonald ultimately fell just inches short in his second bid against Lawler, losing via fifth-round TKO after being up on the scorecards in a contest that many have called one of the greatest fights in MMA history.
