In Strike Force against BabaluLawyer has fought at 195 catchweight I believe and was at MW for quite some time. He’s not a small WW

Bombs from Woodley?
They'll be similar in weight come fight night.
RDA has faced many men that were bigger than him, and he beat them more often than not.
Pressure and volume i think RDA can win, similar to what Henricks did in his second fight with Lawler. He pretty much shutdown Lawlers offense in that fight except for a few select moments. Obv Hendricks lost, but the gameplan was one RDA could use against robbie.I don't see how rda wins.
So is rdas though /: fights a tossupLawlers chin is done.

He's a pretty average sized lightweight.
Lawler is a full sized welterweight who spent plenty of time competing at 185lbs. RDA is a 'in-between' guy who out grew lightweight, but isn't quite the size of elite guys at 170lbs.
In his prime, I don't think Lawler has any trouble at all with RDA. Much was made of his suspicious test numbers (returned just prior to USADA starting, when NSAC decided to do some advanced testing) and he hasn't looked like the same guy since.
Struggling with Cowboy is a problem. That is exactly the guy Lawler should blow right through, who gave him his kind of fight. I think the best Lawler is behind us and thats why we have a competitive fight.
RDA will be undersized but I think he's still in his prime.
