This was the best Robert Whittaker I've witnessed. Good on him.

How's it cold Whittaker refused to fight anyone because he almost beat someone sean actually beat

Whittaker looked sharp last night! Paulo also looked better than he has in his last two fights 🤘🏼

Have no clue how people think Costa won that, Rob was clearly ahead in the first until that kick and while round 2 and 3 were competitive Rob evidently edged them. A 29-28 Rob was the correct scorecard imo but 30-27 isn't out of the question.

Well damage... It wasn't just that kick, he got hit hard in the face a few times... I mean just look how his face looks compared to Costa..he won but it was a close fight... He definitely didn't shake off that head kick 🤣 he was saved by the bell

Damage can be seen through a lot of different ways. Skin damage isn't always the best assessment. Costa never bruised easily, look at his face after Izzy, Romero or Vettori

Who saying costa won? Get got flogged every single round. But I think he beats DDP and Strickland easily. Costa is a big threat to the middle weight division, if he stays injury free.

There is no argument for Costa winning. I scored it 30-27 even with the spinning heel kick. Rob won a lot of the exchanges and landed more shots. Both looked really good.

@@wahjmari3598 Visible damage was done to Rob’s face, but Costa’s leg got chewed up most of the fight. I get that its not a good look visually, but I guarantee you Costa is more compromised post-fight. I don’t think its fair to score fights based off aesthetics. If it were, Nate Diaz would be screwed every fight.

@@jmohan7530 true.. I think he was about to take a huge punch but I'm just guessing lol...but he got out of the round and recovered great. He looked super quick and fast in there..good win. I heard Costa's leg was fucked up bad backstage that's why he wasn't at the post press conference.

Good on Bobby knuckles

Whittaker kinda exposed costas weakness tbh - he never does good against solid leg kickers. Izzy another example. Closed fight but he deff edged out a solid W. Match him up with strickland next. Costa might as well get that fight against khamzat next

Strickland needs to come from a win to fight a winner. Sean needs to fight Paulo. Get that sorted. Rob needs to fight a winner... pity he was DDP's ticket to the title fight. I think Rob outclasses Sean. But it is probably a fight going all the way to a decision.

What are you talking about?.. He literally just lost a belt...if he had a couple title defenses he probably would have gotten an immediate rematch like what happens all the time. I've never seen someone who just lost a belt fight someone who also just lost.. show me an example otherwise 🙄 they usually always fight someone ranked in the top five after they lose.

@@truthseekerKJV And Costa is a lot more powerful and intimidating. Rob did fine. Sean has zero IQ points on Rob and no power. Rob will survive to a decision, no problem, and might even get a result with a fine kick to the head. He's very fast, very nimble.

Ive changed my opinion on costa, i think he is top 4 right now, robert is 2nd adesayna 3rd sean Strickland stocks are selling fast. DDP gets beaten by costa and adesayna, whittaker deserves his rematch aswell. Strickland doesnt fit in the picture right now.

A lot of aaahh’s and oooo’es… thats funny! Congrats!

Being a good dude is not what deserves a win. The liberal judges think like you, and that's why many fights are wrongly decided. The winner of a fight should always go to the one who fights better than the other.

I reckon Whittaker's next career move should be to shave the tash and then grow out the full beard because we need someone who looks like that in the top 10 somewhere.

Costa won that fight watch it back he landed harder cleaner and more damaging blows even his kicks to the leg were doing more
