    Watched the replay this morning and thought he was going to finish him at that point.

    Was Lawler out? The way his arm went limp I assumed he was but he got up right after it.. the video I watched didn’t have the interviews afterwards.

    Nah. Herb Dean lifted his arm and Lawler gave him a thumbs up.

    Just a mistake.

    His arm went limp at first and I thought he was out so could see why the ref stopped it.

    Lawler has escaped a lot of criticism IMO. He didn’t place his hand on the mat whilst being choked, his arm 100% went limp coming off the back of Askren’s head.

    Ultimately it was a mistake but he himself contributed to it.

    Honestly don’t think Colby ever fights Woodley or Usman.

    I think lawlor did go out, but just for a second. His arm going limp like that makes no sense other than he went out. He doesn't even seem that annoyed about what happenend, which makes me think he knows he went out.

    I was sure he was out when the arm went, gave the ref a decision to make even if he wasn't.

    Could of been out for a split second even.

    Dana saying they’re going to take their time with Walker and not give him any serious contender for a while.





    That’ll be Walker/Jones in July then :giggle1:

    235 prelims on ESPN had the highest ratings on cable on Saturday night in the USA.
