Josh Koscheck welcomes Robbie Lawler back to UFC

He has gone in that time span, became the EliteXC middleweight champion, and fought for the Strikeforce middleweight title against Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza in a losing effort. He has lost three of his last four and will look to right the ship against a perennial top 10 welterweight. Let’s see how this one breaks down.

Robbie Lawler comes into this bout off the unanimous decision loss to Lorenz Larkin in July 2012. As I mentioned, he has lost three of his last four and will look to rejuvenate his career with a move back to welterweight. It’s hard to believe he’s only 30 years old as it feels like he’s been around forever. He has 16 wins via TKO/KO and one submission win to his credit. He has been submitted in five of his nine career losses. Lawler is a brawler for the most part. If he can keep fights standing he can knock anybody out with power punches. However, history does not bode well for him in this matchup. Fighters like Koscheck with wrestling backgrounds have given Lawler fits during his career. He needs to influence Koscheck to fight with emotions and engage in striking exchanges and negate his wrestling in this fight.

Josh Koscheck comes into this bout off the split decision loss to Johny Hendricks in May 2012. Koscheck was expected to face Jake Ellenberger at UFC 151, but pulled out of the bout with a back injury. Of course, UFC 151 went on to be canceled, but Koscheck has remained out of action until now. He has five wins via TKO/KO and five wins via submission in his career. Koscheck is one of the best wrestlers to transition into MMA, but has abandoned his wrestling roots in the latter parts of his career in favor of going for knockouts. That strategy has probably cost him a couple of wins. He’ll need to fight smart against Lawler, because back-to-back losses at this stage of his career would not be a good look.

Those odds are about right provided Koscheck fights the smart fight. Both fighters are coming off pretty long layoffs which could be a factor. Historically, Koscheck has had better cardio and in recent losses Lawler has given up multiple takedowns while offering zero ability to submit opponents off his back. He typically avoids looking for submissions while trying to get back up to his feet.Can you spot the answer in the fridge magnet?

The strategy for Lawler is simply sprawl and brawl. He does defend takedowns at a 62% clip, but I have a feeling if Koscheck wants to take him down there’s nothing he can do about it.

Koscheck needs to strike just enough to set Lawler up for a takedown. Koscheck’s striking consists mainly of a huge looping right hand and that’s about it. He needs to be weary of Lawler sending a knee up the middle while shooting for a takedown as Lawler has shown he’s willing to take that chance in the past. Once he gets the fight to the ground he should simply work to keep Lawler there and inflict damage.

LG has released a video teaser for its new handsets to be exhibited at the upcoming Mobile World Congress 2013. The firm has creatively produced the clip of just 48 seconds with the new phone series from LG denoted as L, F, V and G line-ups. We have already seen one handset in the G series; the Optimus G Pro, a higher-end 5.5-inch 1080p handset. Little is really known about other series especially the F and V. Anyway, let us have a look into some interesting things about LG’s performance in the show.

Well, the LG teaser concentrates on the characters L, F, V and G that will possibly be the names of the new LG phones. The video shows that the ‘L’ stands for ’style,’ the ‘F’ stands for ‘freedom,’ ‘V’ stands for ‘view’ and the ‘G’ stands for ‘greatness.’ It means that LG is to introduce a range of incredible handsets in the event along with its top-of-the-line Optimus G Pro, which is also LG’s member to the new line of FullHD phablets.

The LG G Series: As noted in the teaser of the firm, the G series might include some great handsets. The G Pro is going to be the flagship model of the company this year. It is to replace the Optimus G2, which was the high-end phone of the Korean tech maker last year. The new LG phone is to come with a 5.5-inch FullHD display. It is to get power from highly rich specs that include a quad core CPU, 2GB RAM,I personally really like these mini ear cap for my iPhone. 32GB internal memory, 13MP rear camera and more.

The LG L Series: This series has been there for a while. LG looks to roll out a trio of new additions to the existing series,we are the biggest USB flash drives wholesale supplier in china. the L3, L5 and L7. The devices that will be respectively known as L3 II, L5 II and L7 II are to come with some interesting hardware and software upgrades. The devices “have received expected hardware upgrades over their predecessors, while keeping the same design language which lead to over 10 million units sold,” says Tech Radar.

The base model the L5 II is to tout an advanced 1GHz CPU and improved IPS screen. The display panel is a bit more finished even if it keeps the same size and resolution. The device will carry a 5MP rear camera and a 3.2MP front camera. The medium model the L5 II is to come with a 1GHz Cortex-A9 processor and a nice PowerVR SGX531 graphical card. The device mounts a 4-inch WVGA unit. It is to come with Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean out of the box, LG has said. The final model of the L series is the L7 II. The device is to come with a Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8225 CPU that is cocked 1GHz. It is to feature an Adreno 203 graphical processor, 768MB RAM and a cute 4.A chip card is a plastic card that has a computer chip implanted into it that enables the card to perform certain.3-inch WVGA display, 8MP rear camera and more.

The V and F Series: There is no clue about these two possible LG phone series. “We are yet to see what the rumored F-series and V-series have to offer. The paint brush shown in the video might be a reference to a stylus enabled smartphone, but it might be just our imagination,” says GSM Arena. The site notes that the LG video teaser shows a woman with a brush toward her face when it mentions the V series. But,Design and order your own custom silicone bracelet / rubber bracelets with personalized message and artwork. that might be a good guess only, indeed.
