You’ve defeated the likes of Jake Hager, Sami Callihan and Shane Strickland in the past, and of course you’re a former MLW World Heavyweight Champion.

Having been unsuccessful in your title rematch, you’re now set to take on Davey Boy Smith Jr. at Blood and Thunder. What do you think a victory there would do for you in terms of your role in MLW?

Lawlor went on to discuss Smith’s approach to the fight and how that differs from other opponents he’s faced, and that the respect he’s shown Lawlor is certainly reciprocated.

The former UFC star then went on to state that despite the mutual respect they share, he is looking at the challenge as an opportunity to showcase his skills.

Lawlor continued to praise his future foe, stating that he is not underestimating his opponent.

But is the pendulum swinging in Lawlor’s favour? Well, he certainly thinks so.

Ticket information for MLW Blood & Thunder is available here.
