    Lawler can't put pressue on the right leg.

    10-9 Dos Anjos. Lawler has been shut out in every round and needs a KO to win.

    RDA pacing himself brilliantly in this fight. Lawler can't put any weight on his leg so his power is gone, he's never been the best at subs so I reckon RDA had this in the bag now. I wonder if he pushes for the stoppage.

    Lawler very unsteady on his feet, RDA should push for a finish.

    Lawler has a hell of a chin and Dos ANjos just doesn't have the power to KO him.

    Great performance for RDA but I don't see him losing any threat to Woodley.

    I mean he's a good all round fighter in terms of grappling and striking, but he won't be able to keep Woodley against the cage all night surely.

    5 - 0 or 4 - 1 Dos Anjos is the only way I see it.

    50-45 RDA across the board.

    Nice win for RDA, amazed Lawler finished with that shot knee.

    Does this raise the stocks of Ferguson's stand up, even though Robs leg was ****ed, but Tony made RDS look useless on the feet.

    Very nice win for him and he is right in the title picture now certainly.

    Yeah I'd assumed the Cerrone fight was just an off night for Lawler but I think he's finished at the top level now.
