If he has his way, it will be a man he has faced twice already and it would take place in his home state. Hendricks gave his thoughts after the event.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI would like to fight Robbie Lawler again. I\u2019m not going to lie. He\u2019s a tough dude, and he\u2019s a very nice guy, which I like. I like fighting nice guys and fighting guys that I don\u2019t have a problem getting in the octagon with. But it doesn\u2019t matter. I\u2019m not going to sit there and say I want to fight one or the other because I don\u2019t want to pick who wins or loses. Because if the other one wins, I don\u2019t want them to be hating on me and give them more fuel. So whoever wins will be perfect.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cOctober in Houston? Hey, that\u2019d be pretty sweet. Fighting in Texas again, are you kidding me? Never have to travel in 2015? That would be pretty awesome, fighting in Texas again.
