Never Underestimate The Influence Of Robbie Lawler

Lawler looked pumped up, screaming at the crowd before the start of Round 5. Moments later he landed a hard straight left to the already damaged nose of MacDonald. MacDonald grabbed at his nose as he stumbled backward and fell to the canvas, turtling up while Lawler threw punches and forced the stoppage at the 1:00 mark of Round 5 of an incredible fight.

Lawler entered the night on a three-fight winning streak after losing his first bid at the welterweight title. After rattling off wins against Jake Ellenberger and Matt Brown, Lawler avenged his UFC 171 loss to Johny Hendricks, taking a split decision to win the title at UFC 181.

MacDonald was on his own three-fight winning streak, dating back to a UFC 167 split decision loss in his first meeting with Lawler.
