Tom Lawlor has been one of the most outspoken fighters against the UFC's exclusive apparel deal with Reebok, so he knew what he was getting into at UFC on FOX 16.
Lawlor returned from a two-year absence to pick up a highlight-reel knockout over Gian Villante on Saturday's preliminary card. While the win was a hugely important one for Lawlor, gone were the costumes and hijinks that fans have come to expect from the colorful TUF 8 veteran -- though not from a lack of trying.
"When I got to Chicago, the biggest issue I ran into was dealing with the Reebok people," Lawlor said Monday on The MMA Hour.
