Are you going to be surprised if Nate ever beats Robbie Lawler?

If the fight happens.

Do you doubt or believe on Nate Diaz that he could pull this out?

 
robbie has too much power he wont let nate recover
 
I think Lawler could wrestle his way to victory if he doesn't like Diaz's volume striking and can't get through with his power shots.
 
It's been proven without a doubt that WW is not Nate's natural weight class. He's a natural LW just like Mcgregor.

Nate gets hit and Lawler is one of the hardest hitters at WW. If Lawler fights smart, keeps moving, throws some body and leg kicks, he should win.

But Lalwer has been in too many wars these past few years. So, Nate has a chance because of his chin and cardio. Lawler does have a lot of heart and unlike Conor he'll fight against adversity and won't quit and look for a way out. And he'll pour it on when he needs too.
 
I would pick Nick to beat Lawler again. Nate I don't know.
 
lawler doesnt really wrestle and i think he'd be very susceptible to the diaz mind games. he wants to stand and trade, and nate is a crafty boxer. lawler could well fuck him up but i wouldn't be surprised if it was a diaz win

This mostly prove Nate is bad vs. wrestlers. Don't Think Robbie would do that.
 
Robbie was surprised when they first fought. Nick and Nate wont have that element this time.
 
To be fair, people saying Robbie doesn't wrestle, Robbie does in fact come from a wrestling background and he trains with Yoel Romero, King Mo, Hector Lombard, Woodley etc. So he trains with a ton of great wrestlers. So if he works on his wrestling for that camp I don't doubt for a sec that he could take Nate down. Question is, can he avoid getting submitted, if he does, or will he just smash Nate with GnP. I would pick him in the fight. But Nate has a shot.
 
Robbie fighting style is to stand and bang, and after what we see with MJ and Mcgregor, you don't want to do that with nate diaz.

plus if its gets to the ground Diaz has the advantage.

i think Diaz win this fight.
 
I wouldnt be surprised at all.

I like both, but I think Lawler has been rocked so many times that he's gonna get KO'd soon.

I hope Nate doesnt get that fight though. Nate vs RDA makes more sense if they are gonna gift him a titleshot (cuz at least he's a top 10 LW), and Condit deserves a Lawler RM (cuz he actually won that fight).
 
Wouldnt be surprised at all mother fuckers
 
Anyone not named Nate, Nick, or Mrs. Diaz would be very surprised.
Doesn't mean it can't happen.
