#2 Robbie Lawler
One of the UFC’s most popular fighters in recent years, Robbie Lawler’s Welterweight title reign from 2014 to 2016 was one of the most epic in promotional history, and his insane fights with Johny Hendricks, Rory MacDonald, and Carlos Condit will never be forgotten. At the age of 37 though, it’s likely we’re probably seeing the tail end of his career.
‘Ruthless Robbie’ has not won a fight since his July 2017 victory over Donald Cerrone, and while his loss to Ben Askren came under controversial circumstances, there was no controversy in the way that Colby Covington comfortably defeated him in what was basically a pure striking match in the summer of 2019.
Worryingly for Lawler, he looked slow and gunshy during that fight, never really threatening to explode with the violence that fans had come to expect from him. The likelihood is that ‘Ruthless Robbie’ has simply absorbed too much punishment over his 19-year career – and so 2020 would probably be a smart point for him to call it a day and hang up his gloves.
