Who Thinks Whittaker beats Jacare?

[ArtemV]

I think Whittaker has a very good chance of beating Jacare next month.

Of course the ground games are non comparable. However, Whittaker has quicker hands, hits harder, better footwork, is more fluid, more explosive and has great takedown defense.

A lot of people think Jacare is going to walk through Whittaker, but I think a knockout/decision from Whittaker isn't unlikely. I honestly think this fight is 60/40.

Thoughts?

His TDD has improved also and could potentially hold up against Jacare. Whittaker could very well win this one.

 

[Huligani]

Nope.

Who Thinks Whittaker beats Jacare?

Whittaker's mom.

Maybe.

 

[BloodBonesNButter]

Whittaker has been my favorite middle weight since he moved up. I have faith in him

 

[Joyeuse]

Probably the same people who thought Boestch was a "live dog"

 

[Epicness]

I really hope he wins, would shake up the division nicely

and maybe people would finally stop posting alligator emojis on bispings instagram hahaha

 

[Mischievious]

It would be a huge win for Whittaker. Jacare has a lot to lose in this one so I think he'll be on point and win this fight.

 

[trident]

If Yoel couldn't take him out, I don't see Whittaker doing it but it is MMA. Anything can happen.

 

[Drake]

I can't quite see it happening.

But Whittaker absolutely could catch him. Only way I think he wins this one though,

 

[charlopimp]

He absolutely have a chance if he stops the takedowns and get an early K.O.

 

[Mixfight]

Whitaker is nothing to fuck with. Jacare is an absolute tank though and has been plowing through guys. I think its a great fight.

 

[wookie brawl]

Whitaker has decent striking but has sloppy defence.
Yes, Jacare is no maestro on the feet but he can handle Whitaker standing up.
Jacare is simply another level above Whitaker.

 

[The Mookster]

Whittaker is also my fav middleweight but Jacare will take him down and then submit with ease.

 

[GrAtI]

Jacare will sub him.

 

[Lodewijkp]

Whittaker could catch him with a punch. Whittaker is underrated and gets better each time, still jacare will win by grapplefuck.

 

[Jorge Luis Borges]

Whittaker is a future champ. He's kinda mean to his fans though, in that he won't even return my calls.

 

[quadrunner]

I think Whittaker pulls off the upset personally

 

[emog2]

yes but he has too ko Jacare in first round

 

[hypocalking]

Very interesting fight. Whittaker is very scrappy. Haven't really seen how good Whittakers BJJ is. We are going to find out. If he can avoid the takedown he will make it real interesting.
