Hopefully it's just octagon rust but it might just be that fight with Robbie took a career changing toll on Rory.

Rory is MUCH stronger than dude, but he is TOO scared...

How you figure? Hes shucked off basically every clinch/TD attempt Rory had initiated

49-46 Wonderboy and I am being generous. Could be 50-45. Rory had nothing

Wonderboy will probably be champion by this time next year. His speed and footwork will give Lawler or Woodley fits. Not to mention Lawler battled with Rory/Hendricks while Thompson handled both of themwith ease. Only worrisome thing is how will Thompson react if Lawler cracks him hard on the chin

The few times Rory connected, it seemed like Wonderboy was getting shaky...

I don't think Wonderboy can beat a grinder...

One thing I will say is that Lawler probably won't be as gunshy as Rory and will probably throw caution to wind looking to find Thompson's chin, but that just makes it easier for Thompson to open it up and starch him.

I think Wonderboy will beat Lawler...If he doesn't KO him, He will outscore him...

It's not that he was gun shy, its that every time he engaged he missed and got cracked. Few of those and you start to choose wisely rather than diving in like an idiot.

Wonderboy is underrated, he's a real beast. I liked Rory's initial plan of staying on the outside out of his range and just sitting. Someone like Wonderboy has to be chopped down at the legs and avoided. He is far too good on his feet for anyone in the division. Do the Condit shuffle and gtfo of range.
