Is Gastelum the biggest threat to Whittaker?

Israel Adesanya

Whittaker would tool him on the mat though
 
That's literally the only significant win of his entire career? Didn't Mousasi knock out Uriah. Didnt Brunson? Didn't Weidman? Didn't he almost get KOd by Jotko?

You realize there's a difference between having power and bring a high level striker right?

He outstruck Thiago Santos with his big toe snapped in half with bone sticking out. Santos no slouch in the striking department.
 
He turns Whittaker into a wrestler. I liked what I saw with his takedown defense

Yeah but they gave him a good match up for his debut. I hope they keep doing that. I see that people want him in the top 10 already.
 
I can see Gastelum winning. Whitaker is one of, if not the best strikers in the division with top tier TDD. Unlike Whitaker's last two wins, Gastelum's strength is in his boxing.

I said don't bring in rematches lol someone else did also and mentioned a fluke KO. But whats more of a fluke, a KO to the dome by an elite striker, or an upkick ko? Gegard is in an organization where he belongs, b level, against b level opponents...then struggled against Shlemenko. Gegard left because he knew he couldn't stop Rockholds takedowns, just a terrible matchup imo
 
Nah The Guy Who beat Gastelum not too long ago is.


Tha Chris.

Whittaker beats Weidman easily. Gastelum is a question mark, and Bobby Knuckles beats everyone else though Yoel always has a chance against anyone.
