If you watch the clip again of Woodley knocking out Robbie, Robbie did not see the punch coming and did not react to it. He dropped his left hand so he couldn't block the punch nor did he see it coming so he could at least roll with it, which might have saved him. Lawler took that punch clean and was not moving his head or his body in the same direction to at least take out some force. Thus, this doesn't mean that his chin is cracked yet, but a shot like that would have at least wobbled even Nick or Moose.
For all you sherbros who don't believe me, go throw a right hook (or left hook if you're a lefty) at a stationary heavy bag. It would make more impact than if the bag is moving in the same direction of your punch and that will give you an idea of the kind of damage Robbie's brain took.
I've been hit clean with some nice hooks I didn't see coming, even from smaller dudes and even though they weren't very hard I've felt the effects of my brain ricochet against my skull and it did not feel pleasant.
EDIT: Gif for the doubters
