Rory finna get his ass whooped.

The haters won't admit it but Rory's chances in a 5 rounder are excellent. He has all the tools to deal with the boxerwrestler, esp one that fades when pressured.

Used the search function and didn't see anything about this surprisingly...

Rory vs Hendricks would be extremely interesting. Don't wanna see Robbie v Rory 2.

The Canadian Press broke the news today following a talk with UFC President Dana White.

I think he loses to either of them since I think they are both tough style match ups for him but I think he's got a better chance against Lawler.

As it should be. Lombard should be waiting for the shot after Rory.

 

[Broad Blade]

As it should be. Lombard should be waiting for the shot after Rory.

No doubt, Hector's after Rory...

 

[pjmman]

Rory will finish Hendricks/Lawler winner.

i think so too

 

[xP]

He deserves it really. I thought his last two fights were great and the Maia fight was pretty solid too.

Hendricks/Rory and Lawler/Rory II are great fights.

 

[Mixedfights]

Well, that sucks. This UFC title shot thing is just a bunch of BS now. Rory needed at least two more top 5 wins first.

I thought he was being sarcastic.

Rory deserves the shot and good for him but he wont beat Hendricks or Lawler....or Condit. I think he beats Lombard. I see him as #4 in the division.Eventually the top 5 guys get their shot.

 

[trident]

If Diaz somehow pulls off the win against Anderson, I want to see Lawler vs Diaz 2 for the title.

Hendricks vs Rory will be the most logical outcome though. If Hendricks wins, would be crazy to see GSP return to fight him.

Pipe dreams. Maybe.

Nick doesn't even have to win, he just has to have a good showing.

 

[Kanster]

Absolutely fine with that. He deserves it.

 

[Jackonflame]

No doubt, Hector's after Rory...

Yeah, 2 wins against fighters that don't even fight in the UFC anymore.

Oh wait, maybe you meant if Lombard gets past Birkman, the unranked fighter the UFC just signed to fight him.

Seems legit

 

[tekara]

And this is the same shit almost word for word that people said prior to the Lawler fight...

calm down, Lawler only won by split decision. You're making it sound like Rory got his ass kicked for 3 straight rounds.
