It should have been 47-46 Romero or 47-47 but otherwise hell of a loving fight and it made the PPV much better.

Joe's problem as a commentator is narratives. When he gets one in his head (Joanna's leg kicks will take away Rose's mobility) he sticks to them even when they're demonstrably not true.

Jose Aldo was so good at football that he could have been a pro footballer back in Brazil, but instead chose to get peanuts in comparison in MMA.

This is why he's so good at leg kicks. Kenny Florian's the same, real good at togger so he can leg kick good.

I'm more worried that he said he got dropped in the fouth and fifth round, wasn't it the third and fifth? There's gotta be some short term memory loss there. He was on another planet in that post-fight interview

It was actually 48 - 47 Whittaker, but I respect your opinion and also Cum Punk for losing to Rafael Dos Anjos Covington.

In all seriousness the best Chick Magnet Yoel Romero could hope for was a draw and Robert Whittaker is the greatest fighter of all time.

Completely agree. 2 judges gave the 4th to Whittaker which I don't get how.

Definitely gonna re-watch this fight again.

huh? i thought the fourth was clearly whittakers. had it:

1. w
2. w
3. y 10-8 or 10-9
4. w
5. y 10-8

i am stunned that no one gave the fifth a 10-8. that was a brutal beating.

lol, maybe you guys should figure out what winning a round looks like before trying to score a 10 - 8.

I gave Romero the 4th but I don't find Whittaker winning it unreasonable

I don't think any round in that fight was a 2 point round

don't know what fifth round you guys watched where whittaker was either being dropped repeatedly or cowering in yoel's crotch but i'm glad two judges saw it similarly because whittaker rules

I guess I'd be content with him just dying of an aneurism or something, but in the ring would be good too.

I was worried that was going to happen to RDA.

Scored it 48-47 Colby but it’s awesome that his post fight win reel thing was all him throwing bunches of spazz punches and holding on to RDA for dear life. If RDA would have won it would have been a collage of clean knees, elbows, that huge left hand at the start of 4 and the hook he knocked Colby off balance with in 5.

Please Woodley, completely redeem yourself and knock Colby dead.

Anyway, Robert Whittaker has defeated a demigod twice now and is therefore P4P #1

Missed the fights, anyone wanna run down the cool details for me?

Sad Punk lost because he’s a rad dude but eh it is what it is. I’m glad he’s doing this for himself but he should know he’s in a rough position all around. Definitely done with main cards.

The Akuma comparison is spot on. It's not quite as good a fit as Eubank/Dudley, but it's close.
