It would be a good fight. Whittaker might have to resort to trying to take moose down and use his wrestling to control him and grind out a decision. Definitely a fight I'd love to see.
Robert vs Romerogood fight but robert has more.he has fought more tougher ufc fights
He's 32 and we're seeing the best Mousasi now.... that makes him dead smack prime and all that elite mileage that he has put on makes him that special of a fighter.Hasn't been Chuck Liddell been saying that lately too? lol
Kidding aside, I do think Mousasi is still pretty much in his prime, though he does have quite a bit of mileage that I expect to be catching up with him quite soon, unfortunately.
Moose is inconsistent as they come. Whittaker probably kos him because it was an "off njght" as his fanboy would call it.
In reality he's just not that great, especially in the stand up department. We all saw his Bellator debut
Totally agree man. I think Whittaker basically gets knocked out by every top guy at 185, most at 170 and Conor sleeps him in the first at 155.
Let’s be real here right, the dude is basically a massive fucking can and got knocked out 3 times in one fight and lost to a total 10-12 bum. I can’t even remember if he’s ever won a fight.
What I do know, for certain, is Conor is the greatest fighter ever.
I love Moose, but Whittaker KO's him. Too fast, and great TDD.
A very fair post- exceptionalTruth is mousasi is a guy that get tons of respect from his peers just not for what he has done in mma for such a long time and young age. He's fought at LHW, HW, MW and always been succesfull all along.
His resume and career speak for itself.
Whittaker is still nowhere near that kind of achievements.
Now back on topic, could he beat whittaker ? Without a doubt.
Could he loose to whittaker ? Probably
Has somehow become one of the most underrated fighters in world.Mousasi is so overrarated
UFC era Moose hasn't been too outstanding. Got schooled by Lyoto, knocked out by Uriah Hall and dominated by Jacare - making his biggest win (UFC era) a controversial one over Weidman.Mousasi 9-1 in his last 10 fights, 44-6 with 36 finishes but is inconsistent as they come lel
Please dont mention size. Mousasi is quite slim, whilst Whittaker is very thick - Rob looked bigger than Romero tbh.it would eb close mous is bigger than robert but i think robert would win he has better hands and kicks betetr takedown defense mous has better jiu jitsu though but that wont even be a issue in the fight due to it being a striking fest
Imo the UFC belt trumps all of them.....combined.
I’ve got to say, the UFC needs to step their belt game up. The original UFC belts were damn cool.
Most people here know Mousasi's accomplishments, but that doesn't mean we believe he can defeat Rob. There are 3 men who would finish Mousasi. Romero, Jacare and Rockhold - those are 3 guys Rob wins easily against.Man, not to be a dick but reading this post and really this thread in general, I have to wonder if most of you have even seen many fights or watched this sport for more than a year or two.
I would bet huge money on Moose wrecking Roberts shit. Stylistically its a nightmare for him. Hes not taking Moose down, and on the feet its completely different levels. On top of all that, Moose has a better chin to boot.
A lot of sherdoggers think its cool or trendy to bring up Moose nott being in the UFC any more, when the only reason for that is him being able to make more elsewhere. He's a business man first.
