Jack wants to fight the best. This fight is inevitable. Won't happen next but it will in the future. Jacks toughness, cardio and grappling could be a problem for Bobby imo
 
I'd rather Bob wait out for his TS.
But if he really insists fighting this summer for some reason I'm with him.
Bobby is gonna murder him, sorry Jack.
 
Jack gets beat up bad by Rob. Edmen isn't a good benchmark of his skills: guy spent everything on Rd 1 anf gets 10-8 in 2 rounds. Whittaker beats jack easy.

Whittaker has Aldo level of TDD defense and much much better striking than Jack.

Gotta love the Joker for calling him out but that is a bad idea.

Robert Whittaker is a grapplers worst nightmare. He looks like he's from a completely different era with his style and it's badass.
Respect to Jack though, I like him too. Hope he gets to compete for the title one day.
 
Pretty much everyone else in the top 15 is booked, but Whittaker shouldn't have to take anymore risks. Hermansson might have to sit out for a while unless he's willing to fight down. Kevin Holland seems to be the only available guy in the top 15 he hasn't already fought lol

Holland vs Edmen makes more sense imo
 
He was getting phased by TEH Jab of Edmen and he doesn't seem that heavy handed, Robert will style on him with it, and follow up with his signature Head Kick causing him to panic wrestle.

Rob's TDD, and Cardio will hold up and he will likely piece him up to either a TKO or a Decision. Jack's a good fighter but I think it's safe to say we know his ceiling.

It's also a much funner style match up. I wouldn't accept Holland if I were Jack. Too high risk low reward. He needs to sit out and improve his game. Could be 1 fight away from a TS if thing line up right.

To be fair to Jack, he had covid and didn't really train for this fight and it showed. That said, Whittaker is the worst match up in the division for Jack and beats him 9 out of 10 times. Ballsy call out from Jack.

You would be the one person to respond to my comment out of EVERYONE of the same opinion. What did I DO? Haha. My god, I can't say anything about Font, or Jack without you breathing down my NECK!
