Joe Rogan Calls for a Ben Askren/Robbie Lawler Rematch

Yeah, I think Robbie Lawler stopped doing it. I think cowboy I think all these guys Robbie stopped sparring completely for years while he's fighting for strike force But then when he moved to American top team, he started sparring again, and it was training really hard That's when actually he became the welterweight world. He's he's he's so fucking tough Like I want to see that ask and fight again because he I put my money on Robbie Lawler that he does not care about He looked better than I've ever seen him I think I've gone back and forth about five times on whether or not that was a good stoppage But Usman convinced me after we watched the footage that was a bad stoppage. Yeah, I think Robbie was okay I think he just relaxed he was there he had what how I don't know how many more seconds, but that bulldog There's time there, but yeah, but Robbie Lawler. I think he was alright, but it's hard to tell it's just Unfortunate and again Herb Dean is as good a referee as there is on planet Earth. Yeah, there is no one better than him There's no one better Herb Dean is as good as it gets He made a mistake, but it's hard to say if it was a mistake because I wasn't even sure it was a mistake We were not sure well you better to err on the side of caution because he couldn't hear him He couldn't talk but here's the thing. He's only getting choked out like if it's Ben Asgren, it's only he's only get choked out if it's Francis and Gano and he's fucking punching you in the head and you think you're unconscious Then stop the fight But if it's just a choke like Ben Asgren is not known for being in any way shape or form a power striker No, and he's not hitting him. No, I'm only holding onto his neck I don't think that shows have been how tough Ben Asgren was because he got his head bounced off that fucking I was like You're getting crushed here, and he's like whatever yeah, I'm gonna stick to my wrestling Yeah, he was getting fucking pounded But he figured it out and he even though they disengaged He managed to get a hold of Robbie again and get him on the ground and get that choke on yeah Look it was it was fun while last but he doesn't want to fight Robbie again I think if I was the UFC I would be Absolutely trying to make that fight again. Do you think they will I think they want to that's what Dana White said But Ben said why would I want to do that? I already went I already won Yeah, I don't want to do that well But the thing about you know like Kamara was saying like you don't get a choice like the UFC is gonna Tell you who to fight again mm-hmm. Maybe they just offer Ben a good amount of money from Robbie is Robbie is You know he deserves that privilege And I think he's easily up there and he can always be the champion again Well you're more as good as he looks as good as he looks as good as he ever looked You know yes, I bet I looked amazing better. You looked amazing physically. He looked amazing when he was fighting yeah Even more importantly I think that's the fight that makes the most money Because people want to see that I want to see it you want to see it all the real fans want to see it Yeah, I think they don't do enough of that in USC. They do sometimes
