Introducing: Muhammed “King Mo” Lawal

Who is King Mo you ask?
–Video Interview Below…

According to King Mo(205lbs) himself, he’s the baddest mofo in all of mixed martial arts.  The video below is clear evidence of his supreme confidence level.  Here at mmaviewers.com, that goes a long way….as long as you can prove it.  And along with that, King Mo has great quickness and athleticism, and a background in elite collegiate wrestling.    He’s sort of like Brandon Vera, a natural 205pounder who will never concede to believing they can’t concur both the light heavyweight and heavyweight UFC championships.  Sounds like someone has been drinking too much Evander Holyfield ageless juice.

Nevertheless, I can clearly see King Mo’s talents.   But I wonder how much pressure this 28 year is putting on  himself with all the bravo talk.   But hey, I like his potential.  Between he and Bobby Lashley, I’ll give a very slight nudge toward Lawal because of his quickness and moxie.  He’s a NCAA Division II Wrestling Champion and a Div. I All-American from Oklahoma State University.  He beat the much bigger and favored Travis Wiuff in his debut by knockout(superman punch).

BUT, before you view his trash talking (some might call it buffoonery) video clip(allelbows.com), check out how King Mo Lawal gets down with his ring entrances.  Ring Entrances in Japan are classic.  Phil Baroni and Akihiro Gono have nothing on King Mo’s ring entrances:

King Mo’s Ring Entrance vs. Yukiya Naito, in Japan. fyi, ended in Knockout(Rd. 1).  mmaviewers.com can’t confirm or deny what King Mo meant by saying that those girls where indeed ‘his girls.’

Will King Mo live up to his own hype?  Time will tell.

ADDENDUM, 2/16/10:
King Mo sounded defeated Mark Kerr 25seconds into the 1st round, by Punches.  King Mo has since fought and defeated journeyman Mike Whitehead via KO.  Lawal is rumored to face the higher ranked Gegard Mousasi in mid, 2010.

ADDENDUM, 4/19/10:
King Mo defeats lhw champion Gegard Mousasi via decision.  The new Strikeforce lhw champion becomes very emotional in  his interview backstage.  It’s his first mma world champion, and he becomes overwhelmed at the thought…..
