Robbie Lawler rode off into the sunset as a UFC Hall of Famer and a winner of his retirement bout.
The former UFC welterweight champion decided to call an end to his legendary career at UFC 290, where he picked up a knockout win over Niko Price to walk away on a high note after his 25th UFC bout, 46th overall. Not to mention Lawler was inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame two days prior for his classic all-timer against Rory MacDonald at UFC 189, where he retained the welterweight title.
Memorable fights and Lawler go hand-in-hand. Throughout his career, from his early UFC run in 2002 until the very end, “Ruthless” created highlights. But which fight was your personal favorite?
Was it his Pride appearance in 2006? What about something from his Strikeforce run from 2009-12? Lawler had some wild moments in EliteXC too.
