In slight relation to Soukhamthath 'stupidity'

RDA was winning the fight and Lawler's knee was shot. He was backed up against the cage on 1 leg. RDA could have just stood in center and called him forward. Still resulting in victory, but would have he been shamed for taking easy way out? He was a savage and went right into Lawler's power still trying to finish him in the danger range.

1 man is dumb for going for finish and it made the other a brave warrior. RDA won so can't really say he had bad fight IQ.
 
Lawler would've walked forward and gritted it out, he was still up on two legs ya mug. STFU, dont disrespect him like that.

He will always be a fan fave, dude doesn't give up and comes to bleed. But he was more comfortable backing to cage and keeping weight off of it. RDA was game to keep it there.

Soukhamthath was plain stupid. Even his addressing online suggest's that he felt embarrassed over his decision inside the cage and he didnt want to talk about it.

If I blew my ACL I wouldn't be able to form a coherent sentence let alone fight RDA for four rounds.
 
RDA wasn’t finishing Robbie one leg or not. Guy hit Robbie with like 20 unanswered strikes at one point before the injury and Robbie didn’t look phased.

Woodley is going to crack RDA’s chin if they fight.

the fight probably would have been stopped, yeah. I think RDA made a conscious decision to not throw leg kicks to get the win after noticing the injury. Similar reasoning to what khabib gave when he described how he slowly applied pressure to the kimura on johnson. This is just speculation though. RDA just seems like good people to me.

Maybe when your mind is in combat mode, passive actions (ironic right?) like that don't really come to mind.
 
You're a haymaker away with Lawler you goof...

RDA a known pressure fighter, continued pressuring an opponent.

Soukhamthath isn't really a highly regarded fighter. He did his best and as Bender would say his best is an idiot.
