Robbie Lawler vs Niko Price UFC 290 Paradise Las Vegas Fight Video Full HD Free Stream Replay Part A

When Robbie Lawler faces Niko Price in his retirement match at UFC 290, he will make his final walk to the cage.

The UFC 290 preliminary card is won by the welterweight match on Saturday night.

In his final career appearance, former champion Lawler, who has been a fan favorite for 20 years, will face off against the always-game Price.

Let's look at betting perspectives and examine Lawler'S retirement battle.

The UFC doesn't always give their legends winnable matchups in retirement fights, but I believe that 41-year-old "Ruthless" has a chance to strike it rich against 33, who has appeared equally worn out in his recent bouts.

I made a reference to the age angles earlier, and in this matchup, I'm betting against those trends. However, I can't help but feel that Price, who has a 1– 3– 1 record in his previous four bouts, has appeared sluggish and old due to numerous knee surgeries and numerous wars over the course of his career.

Lawler, who has only defeated an elderly Nick Diaz fighting for the first time in six years in his previous six bouts, is expected to land on the very hittable price( 48% striking defense), who might be happy to help him out in a fight.

Price most likely has the upper hand in the grappling match and has a 64% takedown defense advantage over Lawler. However, he recently gave another legend— Cowboy Cerrone— a fast-paced, striking battle, and I imagine Price has enough respect for Lawler to pull this one out as well.
