Video: Tom Lawlor’s UFC Fight Night 20 Entrance

(Via Tom Lawlor’s Twitter)

Looks like we gave Seth Petruzelli too much credit for being clever enough to deceive us. Tom Lawlor did indeed make a Hulk Hogan-esque entrance at UFC Fight Night 20 on Monday night, complete with a feather boa and American flag. Maybe it lacked the raw, in-your-faceness of his UFC 100 entrance, but we have to applaud Lawlor’s attention to detail. Lawlor exhibits all the gestures and mannerisms of the Hulkster here, and gives you the big t-shirt ripping payoff at the end. Aside from maybe a higher quality boa and a little more effort from the UFC’s live event production team, what else do you want?

Join us after the jump for a quick comparison, unless you’re prone to seizures or you hate entertainment.

anybody that comes out like hogan should finish in the first round.

@TUFchick1973
We have no room for female MMA fighters or posters. Because they are found to encourage Tom Lawler. Please shut up.

Shogun, Vera, Lawlor...

These are all people who were recently SCREWED out of clear victories. MMA will be facing legitimacy issues soon if it doesn't fix this bullshit.

I am glad you reported on Petru,Petri, Petro Seth's twitter the other day, because I would have had no idea what the hell he was doing if you had not made the reference. I don't watch wrasslin'.

I hope he comes running out to the cage, ala Ultimate Warrior, for his next fight. Maybe go black face and have a maccaw on his should like Koko B. Ware. Shit, I'd watch.

Yeah the problem with the entrance is Hulk had stadiums full of people going fucking crazy for him. Lawler isn't even close to being a real popular fighter and just can't garner the electricity to pull that shit off. He just comes of lame and needy.

Fail

what's the difference between lawlor's jumpy-dancy stupid entertainment and simpson's "I AM TEH TUFFEST" mean-mug to open the fight? Simpson's putting on an act just like Lawlor, his is just boring instead of annoying.

I'm officially tired of Lawlor's antics. He's crossed over from mildly amusing to Mayhem Miller territory. Someone didn't give him enough attention as a child.

Honestly if you are following Seth Petruzelli's twitter you should probably go fuck yourself to death with a chainsaw.

Fucking...awesome. Would have been even more awesome if Petruzelli didn't spoil it.

Lawlor ain't a douche, he's actually pretty funny. I'd like to hear and see a drunken conversation between Forest, Amir, and Lawlor.

if the judges were paying any attention to that entrance, he would have got that split.

well, I think there is slightly lower expectations from the UFC's live production team on a Fight Night on a Monday, than.. say, UFC 100.

I love it. I would have liked if he had dyed his hair blonde, shave in some male pattern baldness and handlebar mustache while wearing gold tights but i suppose he has to devote SOME energy into preparing for the fight itself. Also, that first round was 10-8. If forrest griffin can get a 10-8 for leg kicking Rampage til he falls over then certainly beating the other guy in the head continuously for 5 minutes while taking no damage yourself warrants a 10-8 as well.
