Robbie Lawler - Rory McDonald 2

Former UFC champion in two weight divisions Daniel Cormier believes that the second duel Robbie Lawler and Rory McDonald must be inducted into the promotion's Hall of Fame.

“I don’t know why this fight is still not in the Hall of Fame. You remember Lawler standing in front of MacDonald and spitting blood. After a while, Rory was beaten so badly that he collapsed and said "Fuck it all!" — because I couldn't take it anymore," Cormier told the DC & RC podcast.

Recall that in July 2015 at UFC 189, Lawler and McDonald rolled one of the brightest fights in the history of MMA. Robbie managed to win by technical knockout in the fifth round, successfully defending the welterweight title.
