***#7 Ranked UFC Middleweight Robert Whittaker, Sherdog Q&A***

[Robert Whittaker]

Hi Robert, great to see another pro fighter around here. It's really terrific to have a surging ANZ fighter to get behind, I've enjoyed watching your transition to MW and your fights there.


Just wondering what your favourite beach is? Sydney has a few fantastic ones.

probably elora beach just down the road haha

Rob, thanks for taking the time to do this. If you could fight any UFC legend past or present who would it be and why?

no idea lol sorry mate

Once Were Warriors or Chopper?

chopper

What up Whittaker?

So are you a DBZ fan, if so who is your favorite character and why?

vegeta, a good guy that wasnt held back by stupid things such as Morales lol ..

Favorite LOL Champion?

Hey, Robert. Please ignore my avatar...I lost a bet... Damn, Overeem...


Thanks for coming here to answer some questions! What was your most satisfying victory thus far?
Wish you the best & look forward to seeing your continued success!

@Robert Whittaker you mentioned
most fighters in your division are
currently looking for "smart fights"

With that in mind, will you, yourself
be looking to do some of the same
after soundly beating a tough guy
without much name value in Natal?

Or do you plan on just accepting
anyone they toss your way?
I only ask because I see benefits
for you with both paths being that
you are still young & have an
entire international market behind
you...
I'm here to fight at the end of the day and gain exp. More fights more exp but i would like the fight dudes who are leading the division because they are the hard fights where i can gain the most from.
Thanks for the entertaining fights.
That Hester fight was buckwild!

@Robert Whittaker

Did you think Hall vs Brunson was an early stoppage?

maybe ? he got hit pretty hard but i wasnt in there reffing. maybe uriah was crying ? and we didnt see it lol who knows haha

Silly question: Robert, would you fight TRTtor, lol?... Scary mofo

100%

I understand they can inconvenience the fighters, but how do you feel about USADA?

i wish they has a dude testing us every single day lol the roster would be like 3 deep hahahaha

Also some brazilian media said that the rumor was of you fighting Weidman.... Pretty crazy,
crazy lol be a good fight though huh?

 

[Arkridge]

Have you been told by the UFC they want to get you on the Melbourne card? Have they ran any matchups by you that interest you and are you currently healthy?

 

[Robert Whittaker]

lol i just want a moving avatar another day maybe

 

[NightwingBJJ]

maybe uriah was crying ?

 

[CereserBr]

You have balls, man... That TRT Vitor was a scary, scary guy.... Im brazilian but i dont like Belfort too much... Cheating bastard!
