Robbie Lawler Doesn’t Rule Out MMA Comeback | The MMA Hour

[@officialFIGHTCHIX]

It was a Hollywood ending to a wonderful career of one of the most stoic and talented pioneers in the sport. Love Robbie Lawler!

[@chadmcclain3462]

I absolutely concur 💯 😎✌🏾

[@johndeignan2668]

Please stay retired. I’m the biggest Lawler fan and that UFC 290 win was a picture perfect ending to a badass career.

[@theallamericannightmare4163]

Totally agree 💯👍

[@MrMASH50]

Retire from throwing down but be cool to see a grappling match on a card...like something extra why not.

[@blitheringrando1410]

I tend to agree. If he didnt retire then it would have been fine, but it was perfect as it happened. He proved everything

[@mikemichaels2914]

The paid flop lol

[@johndeignan2668]

@@mikemichaels2914 Ahhh conspiracies

[@joshuawhinery208]

Robbie is living proof that a person can be a total shark-eyed, barbarian psychopath and still be a super good dude; bon voyage, sweet prince of savagery! Your marauding ways and deadpan nonchalance will be greatly missed, but thanks for the memories!

Cringe.

Nah Robbie you are one of the few to go out in spectacular fashion with a W let that be the last impression we saw! 👏🏾👏🏾

[@paulclancy2404]

We bkfc against perry , extra vacation money for robbie

[@NRC613]

​@@paulclancy2404no man his health he always said he won't. We don't want him in bare knuckle

[@MrMASH50]

Hope ufc would throw in grappling matches every now and then to give a ppv something extra and to give the legends a way to stay in the light when they get the itch.

[@MrMASH50]

​@@NRC613totally agree UFC needs to keep their legends

[@mikemichaels2914]

Robbie vs Perry would be Epic 2bh

[@patrickflug4605]

To push through a completely torn lip and land pinpoint finishing shots vs Rory is how i will remember Ruthless Robbie Lawler.

[@davidgallant2944]

Robbie is a true champion. God bless that man..🫡👊✌️

[@MrMASH50]

Ufc could do special grappling matches on a card. Get him and nick Diaz in a rolling match. This is what they could do to keep them in the light a little

[@olivergosling3668]

Watched Robbie from the time he was losing to Pete Spratt and knocking Tiki stone dead. Huge fan and probably the truest BMF in the history of the sport. Highlight reel is arguably up there as the best of all time!

[@zenmorte2793]

I love seeing him retired, happy and looking for the next chapter, big ups Ariel and Robbie

[@curt4200]

Awesome interview-thanks to the both of you

[@PrinceSlap]

Never thought he would stop MMA, just a retirement from UFC. Really wanna see him in a bare knuckle fight 💪🏼😄

[@ScribblesOfOwls]

Robbie vs Hendricks in BKFC BBY!

[@patricksimon3431]

Robbie vs Mike Perry ! Is the fight

[@paulclancy2404]

That's the fight I want perry robbie but he left little hope at the presser . He's probably above doing bkfc in his mind but money talks , nice 200k for 10 minutes 😂

[@kiwidubz]

@@ScribblesOfOwls come on bro Johny lost to an LGBT in bareknuckle.. Perry is the fight

[@NRC613]

Then you don't like Robbie if you say that he doesn't want bare knuckle and his health he admit he may have cte

[@steveng14043]

If he does come back then a bare knuckle fight against Mike Perry needs to happen.

[@NRC613]

No

[@drinkinrawacky154]

This is why it’s hard to care about any MMA “retirement”. Signs a last fight contract, plays a heart-felt retirement video after his fight, says he’s done for good in the cage, everyone cheers. 2 days later “I can’t rule out a return to MMA” 😂😂😢

[@MrMASH50]

You never stop fighting but ufc could put in special rule matches where they could retire but still be apart of promotion. Roll with another legend on a ppv card. Cowboy or Nick Diaz be down to grapple.

[@BOZ_11]

@@MrMASH50 if you're fighting, you're not retired. A senior's league is really dumb since these guys have 10 lifetimes worth of damage over your average Joe.

[@mrc.p8423]

Robbie is a absolute legend, props to ariel who is the best interviewer in the game, along with the English bt sport guy Adam

[@Hanashi_mma]

All love and prosperity to the ruthless lawler !

[@theallamericannightmare4163]

Big Robbie and ufc fan. Please stay retired. That was a perfect ending. Don't go out looking at the lights on your back knocked out or beat up. Stay retired and enjoy your family and friends. And enjoy your health.

[@pheo1418]

I can see Robbie having a career resurgence in the BKFL, his hands and toughness have always been his biggest strength so i would look forward to seeing his debut. i would compare him to Mike Perry except Lawler isn't a promo or character guy.

[@WTFisupDennys]

Please dont ruin it Robbie.

[@reeko169]

They always do

[@paulclancy2404]

Yep please do though fighters fight its in the blood , he will feel empty and chomping at the bit when bkfc makes there offer hopefully "

[@WTFisupDennys]

@@paulclancy2404 I'm just talking about MMA. He for sure should go to BKFC!

[@WTFisupDennys]

@@reeko169 yeah he will be fighting Usman next probably. 🤣

[@MrMASH50]

Ufc should hv extra grappling matches on ppv to give legends like him something to keep that itch under control. Not a lot but every now and then and keep it like bmf, deserving peeps.

[@jaskev1996]

When Robbie first started his career with the UFC, he was cocky...as time went on he realized that he didn't need to be that way. Now I like his humble ways. I love him and wish him the best. I know he will be alright.

[@sinjinsmythe1571]

He was never cocky...... he wwas hyper aggressive..... never cocky. Maybe nonchalent but he was nonchalent till the last day of is fighting career.

[@DocYAYAYA]

UFC should be looking after this man so he doesnt have to come back and fight... legend of the game

[@user-je6jj5bl7b]

What a legend

[@isamgo]

Robbie deserves to do whatever he wants. If he wants to go out on his shield so be it. If he comes back and destroys everyone so be it. Robbie became champion at a point in his career when no one even expected him to still be winning. If anyone can make a come back its Robbie.

[@blitheringrando1410]

I tend to think I'm even keeled and easy going, but Robbie is as chill as it gets

[@vaneast411]

easily one of my favourite fighters of all time!

LEGEND!!!!

Really enjoyed this 👌

[@senseii9]

Thank you Robbie

[@banmadabon]

Robbie Lawler for President!

[@joshnorton9691]

Absolutely legend in the sport. Huge respects to Lawler for walking away still having a few more in him, the last thing fans want to see is a huge loss streak then cut to end a career aha

[@TheBest2ndBorn]

Would be cool if he signed with BKFC

[@danidoster9]

Mirko Filipovic back too, great k.o leg

[@robovac3557]

He's already given back so much more than 99% of fighters.

[@IlIlIlIlIlIlIlIlIlIlIlIlI]

Damn it Robbie, no! Hope his family steps in and tells him no but of course he can do whatever the hell he wants. These guys need hobbies or run a side business with a partner that can take up their time/attention because they always come back just to get KO'd by young bloods

[@johndeignan2668]

Watch the interview. Ariel just asks Lawler if he has more in him and if he’d compete in MMA, boxing. Lawler said he does have some left in him but reiterated that he’s staying retired.

[@MrMASH50]

Grappling match would be cool on ppv if it with someone like Cowboy or Nick Diaz...feel UFC missing out that it's MMA but could hv special matches with it.

[@mcallstar7]

Give robbie MVP

[@TheoP582]

They never do

[@danhold1]

You cant keep a warrior down, Robbie do whatever you want you are still relevant and a bigger warrior has never lived 👍🏻

[@theguvnor3880]

This was the perfect retirement, so I hope he doesn't tarnish it, by fighting again.

[@KBWarrioR2018]

The real highlight reel

[@nomoney_sniper1885]

Didn't mystic mac call this a few weeks ago ? lol

[@handstwister]

The talent pool is already too watered down in some division to have a weight class every 10 pounds. Can you imagine breaking up welterweight middleweight and light heavyweight divisions up into that many more weight classes? Plus probably splitting the rest of the division talent as well. Then what do you do with the heavyweights bring in a a bridgerweight division and a super heavyweight division? Where you steal half the light heavyweights and all the smaller heavyweights? Those divisions are so shallow as it stands they struggle to have heavyweights on every card.

[@docb1844]

Rory McDonald Fight was hands down the best finish/knockout ever w Robbie

Headline is a bit out of context. Robbie keeps saying he's finished, but as a fighter at heart, he can't say it definitively and Ariel keeps pushing him to say he'll come back

Stay retired, Robbie. I remember when you nearly separated Tiki from his eyebrow back in 01 or 02 lol You cannot end a career any better.... you may win again but you'll never get to the title again, if you come back and then lose, you'll regret coming back. Do something else.☮
