Rory, way more tools and already been well tested against the top
Askren hasn't been tested vs anybody and more one dimensional
Rory eats guys like that alive

Theres a good chance Rory could very well be #1 WW in the world, guy is still young too


I think he had a lot of trouble with Lawler and Woodley presents similar issues.

I think 170 is super exciting but I feel like it has gone a bit downhill in the last couple of years. Rory is a great all-around fighter but he's not by any means a special athlete. He's not that strong, he's not that fast, and he doesn't hit especially hard.

I've gotten more into the little guys and the 185s & 205s lately. I think 170 needs a rebirth.

If Rory is the best guy at 170, in the words of GSP, "I'm not very impressed". But he should still have some years in him and if he can get physically stronger he may turn into a true champ.

^ I have it:

Woodley
Lawler
Rory

with Rory being the most skilled overall of the 3, but also the least powerful. We may soon see Rory & Woodley II. I still think Woodley presents a huge obstacle to Rory if he uncorks on him.
