Off the back of his stunning, fairytale retirement at UFC 290 last night, former undisputed welterweight has jokingly weighed-up a potential clash with former two-weight champion, Conor McGregor – who doubted the retirement of the San Diego veteran.
Turning in his final Octagon outing last night in the featured preliminary bout of UFC 290, former undisputed welterweight titleholder, Lawler managed to land a brutal 38-second win over Niko Price – landing a staggering KO win over the latter with a short left hook during an early clinch exchange.
Bowing out of the sport after his finish of Price, Lawler’s planned decision to walk away from combat sports was immediately shot down by former undisputed lightweight and featherweight titleholder, McGregor, who claimed the Californian would likely return before the end of the year.
