"King Mo" Lawal wants to boycott "boring" Gegard Mousasi, says Quinton Jackson is a "bum"
Posted on January 8, 2012, 01:06 PM by Joey SantosusFormer Strikeforce Light Heavyweight Champion Muhammed Lawal, who defeated rising prospect Lorenz Larkin at last night's Jardine vs. Rockhold event, reflects on his victory, and discusses fellow 205'ers Gegard Mousasi and, UFC star, Quinton "Rampage" Jackson. Lawal insists that Mousasi is "boring," and suggests that fans boycott "The Dreamcatcher," and when asked about a potential bout with Jackson, "King Mo" says he's ready and willing to fight the "bum."

Muhammed "King Mo" Lawal
"From now on, at this press conference, don't say Mousasi's name or I'm going to fall asleep. He's the most boring person in MMA. If they want me to beat Mousasi up, or - my bad - Kermit up, I'll do it. But, he's just so boring, I just can't - I hate thinking about him. Let's join my bandwagon, and let's boycott Gegard. How about that? Are ya'll with me?
Why do you have to bring up that bum (Rampage Jackson's) name, man? It's like this, if he wants to come to Strikeforce and get beat, he can. He needs to stick to acting and just doing movies, because, to me, in my mind, he ain't got it no more. He can hit me up on Twitter and talk trash - try to get me off my game - but, really, we all know the truth. Man, he's an actor - a subpar actor. He should be on the "B-Team," not the "A-Team."

good finish tonight!!! ( bad ref )
he won the fight vs mousasi because of the takedowns!! but mousasi was landing more punches/elbows!!! is more entertaining to watch than queen mo!!!
"but, really, we all know the truth. Man, he's an actor - a subpar actor"
well mo, hes probably also a millionaire as a result of that film so im sure he wont mind you calling him that, and also, considering hes achieved a LOT more than you in mma, if hes an actor not a fighter then im not sure what that makes you :-/
theres a reason you see guys like this calling out rampage (similar thing happened with hammil) they realise they're not on the same level, but want a big name and figure that rampage is more beatable than any of the other top LHWa (like hendo jones rashad etc)....he still makes a fool of them everytime
Mo is a joke. A few weeks back he said Mousasi has the best stand-up game in the 205 weight division. Now he disses him? I think Mo wants a title shot and he doesn't want his opponent to be Mousasi. Before the Mo fight Mousasi never trained in wrestling he started just now for his last fight. Plus he's moving to America. Add it up. Good camp, complete training, more talent. Mousasi will kill King Bore. King bore is scurred.
Like Mir, Volkmann and Sonnen he has to talk trash to get people to notice him.
mannn Ive ha been hoping for him to fight Rampage and Mo needs
it for the BIG name regardless how he is doing he has lots of fans if he won he would jump up in rankings and be better known
If that's not the pot calling the kettle black. That was a boring fight compared to Mousasi's . Not a big fan of Mousasi's but he's not as boring as Mo.
As for Jackson, he would have killed Mo in his prime. Today - not sure he can win.
Boring bad boy antics Mo. Step it up or step back.
He stepped it up, that was some of the most brutal and powerful ground n pound I have seen in a long time. Haters can hate.
I am a fan of Mo, and look forward to see his next fight. He is definitely talking his way into the UFC, but what is cool is I believe he will try and back up everything he says.
MMA needs more characters, either it be Heroic or Villainous
I think Mousasi should have a chance fighting Lawal again to avenge his one loss since 2006. Mousasi actually won their 1st fight; simply viewing the fight and compustrike data, it's easy to see how lopsided the judges ruled in Lawal's favor. Laying flat on his back and unable to sit or stand, Lawal was literally hiding his distorted face and crying during his post-fight interview with Helwani. Poor, introverted Mousasi was robbed of his belt for the hopeful pro$pects of the charismatic Lawal.
Talking about pro$pects, Lawal should be permitted to have his Cutie Honey japanese dancers assist him during his entrance!
Not sure about Mousasi being "boring", but I would love to see King Mo' take down Rampage and destroy him on the ground.
Jackson says :: "I got 99 problems but a "MO" aint one'
King "Hoe" MO
In my eyes Gegard won the fight from the bottom. But in modern MMA, especially in North America, top position trumps all. In Japan they would have carded Mo a whole bunch, but hey it was also GM's fault. I think the fight would go a lot different this time around. GM's wrestling has improved a lot, but Mo's hands have only improved a bit.
Mousasi is way more exciting to watch than king JOKE! and Rampage is funny,he's hilarious! King CLOWN tries to hard to be funny and always fails,sorry King BUM keep trying!!!!
