And* that fight with Gomi was at a fucking catch weight. I mean, seriously - If Nick can't knock a natural 155 pounder with as many clean looks a gassed Gomi gave him, what in the world makes a person think he can knock AJ out?
Rivethead said it best - KO'ing Lawler's been a curse for Nick. He's been chasing a KO, and he doesn't have that power. Had more to do with Robbie's glass chin.
His stand up is terrible, and he should stop trying to make a highlight reel of all his opponents. He's an average fighter on his feet, and a complete strategical brain fart come fight time so.
