I'd rather get shot than go 10 rounds against Romero. Whittaker's career is like choosing "nightmare" difficulty in a game. Really hope Bobby Knuckles pulls the W.
@@positivelastaction3957he missed weight so it wouldn't have mattered. Also if you do nothing the whole round but then knock someone down it doesn't mean it's a 10-8 round.

You hear people talk about "leaving everything you have out there" or "willing to die in that ring". Robert Whittaker is actually THAT GUY dude has fought injured and won multiple times. He's the definition of modern day warrior
I don't get why this wasn't counted as an official title defense for Rob Romero missed weight yes, but Rob won and he did not miss weight🤨 So be basically beat an opponent that also had an unfair advantage and he still doesn't get the title defense?
@@AttilaTheGreat1yeah, they said so on commentary during the opening rounds. If your the champion, and your opponent does not make championship weight, they forfeit their right to fight for the belt.. it’s a non-title fight at that point. If the champ misses weight but the opponent doesn’t, the champ loses the belt (a la Oliveira) and cannot regain it if they win, but the opponent can gain the belt if they win.
@@Sky-wo1ltyes. But it also seems unfair to take away from rob when he did everything right. He made weight showed up and won the fight against the number 1 contender if his division whilst champion
One thing I always admired about Whittaker is that even when he gets dropped or almost KO'd he still goes forward and never stops being aggressive. There's not even a drop of fear in his blood.
@@smdd90 Robert admitted himself that he lost himself around that time in his career. He was being too technical and really just bored in the cage and not working on "being a dog" and his last fight with Costa he wanted to get that fire back so I'm hoping he has sparked it moving forward.
Rob started blitzing into the jab just before it hit him, so a lot of the power he felt in that was his own bodyweight. Unlucky timing and Dricus later implied that he was never setting up that shot for a KO. It was his own body weight, so aside from that his only post-welterweight weight-cut KO was from Izzy; after Rob had come back from long-lasting medical issues and then fought recklessly against someone who knocked out Pereira and won a TKO over Costa (back when Costa still looked like light-heavyweight minimum and could only fight at catchweight). Rob has a notably good chin (and still does), which is obvious once you scrutinise all the contrary evidence more thoroughly.
That’s the thing with Whittaker you can’t break him with a volley you need to put him down with a big shot. It’s actually crazy how he didn’t get put out in the third round and just kept fighting. Even when he ate that head kick off costa most people would have shelled up or clinched or shot for a takedown but when costa walked up to a very rocked Whittaker to try and finish him Whittaker stood his ground and started swinging big hooks in the pocket like a maniac 😂.
@@ExoticEioLawyler vs Rory, Conor Vs Diaz 2, Cain vs JDS 2, Justin vs Chandler,Hooker vsvDustin. Mendes vs Aldo 2, Jones vs Alex. I can keep going. The first 2 rounds of this fight were ok at best but nada special.
If he doesn't do something stupid like keep flying half the octagon with every attack eventually right into a counter, I see Bobby Knuckles winning quite handily.
@@ashton_x1932 And you think he doesn't?? Based off what, short-notice Usman and yet he gassed by the 3rd round? I'm not saying Khazmat ain't legit, I'm saying having a last-minute fight with a WW is not exactly the top test for the top of MW division.
@@ashton_x1932your boy gonna gassed himself out trying to takedown whittaker he might dominate him in early rounds but he would get slaughtered in later rounds.
How. It was a greatvKnockdown ny Romero but then they gagged each other 4 2 min. Bobby head kicked hom n jabbed him at the end of the round. Not even a top 10 round of all time. Cmon. It was a great round but wasn't special at all.
The Cubans were known for their drug trials on athletes, yoel was probably the subject of certain trials during his wrestling training with the Cuban national team from a young age.
Romero had the same fighting style standing his ground, against Adesanya, but Adesanya was so scared after taking a solid punch that got his eye blinking like crazy. After that it was a nonstop running contest with only leg kicks. Whittaker fought with courage and skills to avoid many hits. He didn't just start running after feeling the power. Where's all the Adesanya fans saying "Did you expect Izzy to trade and take punches?" 😂 You don't have to run to be skilled and smart.
yall impressed by Yoel for being this huge brick wall that can’t be knocked down??? I’m more impressed by Whittaker being able to survive that long with the soldier of god.
imo Romero pretty clearly won it .. he had the bigger and cleaner shots, more takedowns, had Whittaker in trouble for extended periods of time .. I cant understand why he didnt get the W ..
Weird opinion: I believe Romero never took his mma career seriously. I think that's why he rarely threw, he had a wonky style, and he almost never wrestled, even when he had a clear disadvantage on the feet. I don't say that to slight him. I just think he was having fun with it since he knew how durable and athletic he was.
Nah man, Romero just has wonky stamina and is terrified of running out of gas. Wrestling is crazy draining, Romero throws everything with crazy power, so he has to be weird and low output. He cuts crazy weight, and is 41, and as much as he is a genetic freak, no one is immune to the effects of age and weight loss.
Wrestling is tiring, you want to make the opposition tire more trying to get back than you get shooting. Romero had a very limited gas tank being so huge and he didn't have submissions to make his wrestling more of a finishing option.
..................... just the punch that made Rockhold lay down like in the beach.................. is a stupid display of power...how you gonna move someone from vertical to horizontal in its own axis, not like a domino, but completely rotating him from up to laying down, never seen that before, it was like he hit him with a blunt object.
Why is no one commenting on the judge's giving it to Robert.. UFC need to change The rule's to how it is im ONE judging the fight as a whole instead of scoring each round 10 8 yoel beat him up ridiculous that you are able to win by getting your ass handed to you
Whittaker is just an unbelievable fighter. He has a heart a soul of a champion. He keeps going where others would give up. Romero was physically and mentally drained trying to put Whittaker away. Whittaker is a savage fighter in the Octagon but the nicest family man outside. He's a professional through and through without the shit talk.
Bro I can't commit to fandom but damn Robert and Dustin have put in the fing work, damn hard fighters, they would've been Legends if they fought in the 40's and 50's. This post Jon Jones, Khabib era is tough.
These two fights are my favorite in the UFC Robert has been my favorite fighter for so long omm im so glad he got an alter ego cause he had a hell of a run before Izzy came along and people started hating on him for no reason
Stop posting this weird as comment casual. BIsping vs Silva was way more entertaining. I'm saying that 2 say that both Whittaker, and Bisping got knocked down twice but that in a Title figh in different rounds but that was was pretty much it.Yoel took round 1, 2, 4 off and hrs a beast but always had cardio issues in those 5 round fights. Bisping n Whittaker won there fights and imo its very easy 2 judge both fights.

@@MVProfitsRound 5 is the 10-8. Round 3 was a 10-9. Rob was kicking him and they were clinching for like 2 min. Romero was trying 2 gwt rest probably. Draw at best but even if they had Joel Winning it wouldn't matter cuz he missed weight 4 a Championship fight.
Romero could’ve been champ after this fight if he didn’t wrestle after he rocked Whittaker in the 5th. Whittaker was pretty much down and dazed but Romero decided to get on his back
Not that I've been counting points, but Whittaker won because its a controlled environment, thats for sure. If this was the streets, Romero would've won..
This fight was truly fantastic! What warriors they are! I think Yoel did the most damage, but it is round by round scoring. Whittaker is a beast of his own right! Amazing fight!

First time I see this one. Did not disappoint! 🔥
HOW ROBERT WON ? YOEL KNOCKED HIM DOWN 3 TIMES ! R U OKAY ?
Romero ROCKED that boy! He was robbed!!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Adansanya did the right thing, ran marathon for the whole 25 minutes, gave Dana some head and got the win.
Yoel won...
Why was I never a fan of Robert Whitaker?
This man is a wrecking ball. War machine.
Round 3 was a straight-up movie scene.
They should change their editing style at time and show some replays! I just don't get the UFC sometimes... So many gems in that round 3.
@@MVProfitsRound 5 is the 10-8. Round 3 was a 10-9. Rob was kicking him and they were clinching for like 2 min. Romero was trying 2 gwt rest probably. Draw at best but even if they had Joel Winning it wouldn't matter cuz he missed weight 4 a Championship fight.
@@barbarapaparella1833you don’t get a 10-8 for a knockdown lol you have to have complete dominance the entire round which it wasn’t.
Gotta love the Romero corner screaming AYAYAYAYAAAAY
Shameful decision. Who could possibly saw a victory from Whittaker? This was totally stolen. 😞
What a fight !!! Whittaker's durability & HEART won him this fight...
WTF?!?! Yoel Romero win fight!
Unbelievable that Whittaker broke his hand and powered through it somehow. What a legend
Romeo got robbed. He really won, RU kidding me?! Whittaker got bullied all fight. I'm shocked remero lost
Not a robbery at all
The will of Whittaker is on another level man he really fights till his last breath 🩸🩸🔥
this was clearly a 48-47 for romero
I agree I think round 5 could’ve been 10-8 or he won round 4 at the end
Absolutely no way Romero won the 4th round
This is one of the best MMA fights I've ever seen, even though it started kind of slow.
Yoel and Chael can commiserate with each other that they will always be second best.
Round three was an entire stright up street fight it was like watching them fight 5 separate fights straight up war !!!
romero just plowed whittaker and still lost? the judges did him dirty
HE WAS ROBBED!!!!!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
I'm totally agree.... romero has been been robbed
Romero is so 'MASSIVE" compared to Whittaker. Romero now fights at Light heavyweight(205) in Bellator and he still has to cut weight to make 205.
10:52 marc goddard stops it here
I don't no about everyone else but Whittaker actually fought this man😮
Romero could’ve been champ after this fight if he didn’t wrestle after he rocked Whittaker in the 5th. Whittaker was pretty much down and dazed but Romero decided to get on his back
He wouldn't be champ even if he won this fight, missed weight.
Honestly I thought that Romero deserved this win. He was the one giving the hardest punch’s and knockout’s .
Fuck izzy Whittaker and Romero are better
That's why both lost
Imagine Romero vs Pereira at 205lbs 🥶
Didn't romero get robbed of this fight, or am I wrong
Not that I've been counting points, but Whittaker won because its a controlled environment, thats for sure. If this was the streets, Romero would've won..
You are wrong sir. The decision for Whiteker is right in my opinion.
Whittaker won one, two, and four. Romero won three and five.
This fight was truly fantastic! What warriors they are! I think Yoel did the most damage, but it is round by round scoring. Whittaker is a beast of his own right! Amazing fight!
