Robbie Lawler is a 2 to 1 favorite over Nick Diaz

[zxyss25]

HOW
WHY
HOW AND WHY

The same Robbie Lawler who is on a 4 fight losing streak at WW and just got outclassed by journeyman Neil Magny. Robbie is on a significant downturn and took a lot of damage

Compared to a now motivated Nick Diaz who is has best resting and recovering over 5 years and last fought moving up in weight and going to a decision with MW great Anderson Silva

Plus Nick doesnt have to worry about getting caught for smoking weed or CBD

 

[blaseblah]

Nick is on a 3 fight losing streak and hasn't fought in 6 years.

 

[Ace70 V2]

Maybe they are using the long layoff as part of their equation. I think Nick takes it though.

 

[kenetics]

He should be because he has been more active win or lose.

Nick by tko again.

 

[zxyss25]

Nick is on a 1 fight no contest streak and "hasnt taken damage" in 6 years.

Cause he’s actually been in a fight in the last 7 years?

 

[CrimsonFan]

Yeah watching Robbie fight recently I don't think he should be a favorite over anyone. He isn't even throwing punches in his lands few fights

 

[Bluntforce420]

I just checked the odds

It had Lawler-125

Diaz +105

 

[TheNinja]

B/c we have no idea how motivated Nick will be. We have no idea what shape he will show up in. We have no idea what he's been doing for the extended time he's been away. Too many unknowns with Nick.

 

[Roop Holstry]

Diaz hasn’t won a fight in 10 years.

Also in his 6 years off he has been getting wasted regularly

 

[kuf]

Nick has been frying his brain drinking and partying on the daily as a PR person for local clubs for the best part of the last 5 years. I don't think he looks good in his comeback.

And I say that as a fan.

 

[Gilday]

Diaz literally hasn't won a fight in 10 years and he's spent the last 6 drinking and partying. Lawler has declined but he's still fighting and it's not like he's getting starched

 

[Herwald]

Nick is gonna stand there with Robbie bobbing and weaving around him for 3 rounds. Lawler will win the decision, Nick will complain at the presser and demand a trilogy.

Nick is on a 3 fight losing streak and hasn't fought in 6 years.

Yeah lol, not sure why anyone can argue the odds. Nick...aside from what you stated also appeared to be in a bad place mentally and physically for a few years prior to getting back into the gym..so even as a long time fan of Nick...I am very skeptical of the form he comes to fight with.

I'll take that trilogy

Nate v. Conor
Nick v. Lawler

same card in December or January after Robbie wins this one

edit: somehow forgot conor broke his leg lol

I just checked the odds

It had Lawler-125

Diaz +105

Then its down...was higher

I have to admit, I haven't seen any recent interview. But based on the ones we saw around the time of Nate vs Jorge, Nick's liver might beg to differ.

 

[HockeyBjj]

What fucking bookie are you using TS? I see Robbie at -125. That's pretty far away from -200

 

[Sonny Qc]

will make money betting on nick Diaz then!

 

[No Skill Gap]

On top of the obvious,

Hasn't Nick been struggling with alcohol or been a crackhead in this span or something? I recall hearing some crazy shit. Didn't he go nutty and beat his gf? Something like that.
