Rewatched an old fight and it’s given me insight into how Whittaker beats Izzy.

[ifindgifsforjackslack]

His only path to victory is our collective willpower, even Izzy fans should be doing this, or your gunna have to see a Costa rematch or Strickland… a trilogy is the best outcome for this division




So please, as Whittaker enters the cage, raise your arms and give him your energy.

I like Whittaker but I prefer Izzy as an active champion in if we're worried about moving the division forward.

Except the division moves forward to Sean Strickland…

 

[PicoPulse]

I actually think Rob does much better this time around
dont be surprised if it goes 5 in a back and forth

 

[RageQuitLord]

Dude I want Whittaker to win just because I feel like Izzy has a bad attitude towards fighters and I prefer a respectful martial arts approach.

I'm worried though because it just seems like he has that straight line karate blitz entry and when he rushes in like that he will get clipped.

No if Izzy wins this it's not going to be a Costa rematch or Strickland, it's either going to be Cannonier or a Brunson rematch

Costa has to prove he can still make MW and win some fights, Strickland has to win at least 1 more fight and hopefully not be boring this time

Bobby nor Izzy would be concerned of a couple pillow fists.

 

[Sickbro69420]

If his boxing defense is better than last time I think he could take it.

Well let’s hope in a cpl of years he’s actually got a team that could come up with a good gameplan and able to train their fighter in how to implement it. The blueprint is out there.

 

[Kthankss]

I’ve been a fan of Whittaker for a long time but Izzy is a very experienced kick boxer, he’s going to have to have something crafty to finish him.

If Bobby doesn't grapple and shoot this time around. . . . he deserves whatever he gets. That being said, WAR BOBBY KNUCKLES

Everytime I hear that I think of this

 

[Fireman Carry Larry]

I agree.

Whitaker's success will definitely be dependent on the planet's energy Saturday night for his Spirit Bomb.

Hopefully Izzy won't interfere while he's charging up.
