    Odds makers have Covington at a -220 to -260 favorite. I actually really like Lawler's chances in this one. Hopefully I'm just not blinded by my love for Robbie Mother Fucking Lawler, but I really feel Covington has yet to fight a guy who is willing to bring the pain like Lawler. I am picking Robbie to clip him in the 2nd and take Covington out.

    Hyun Ma and Holtzman with a barn burner. Think we already have our fight of the night.

    Yeah I guess when ESPN and the UFC agreed to the time slot of the fight it was supposed to be a UFC Europe card leading into the NFL Hall of Fame enshrinement ceremony; but the UFC pulled the plug on the Europe card and Jersey got it. ESPN couldn't re-arrange the time slot.

    I don't like the guy, but that was as dominant of a win as it gets for Covington. Lawler had no answer for Colby at any stage of the fight and the score cards reflected it. I honestly don't think Usman can beat Covington either.
