[Chael_Sonnen]

WAAAAAR REAPER.

Whittaker by whatever he wants. He is the best MW on the planet.

Good fight i hope Rob wins it

 

[MrFreeze]

Nice to see Whittaker with a quick turn around
War Reaper

 

[omawho402]

Cannonier by TKO punches, but I doubt I'll actually bet money on this one. Too close and unpredictable of a style match up

 

[Simple Southerner]

I think this is A very winnable fight for Whittaker

 

[theTKDguy]

Whittaker should fight hermansson. Canonnier ko's him.

 

[Weuylf]

An ex champ fighting dangerous top contenders to get another crack at the belt. Refreshing.

 

[Mohawk Banditó]

Hermansson vs Till then? Maybe Hall vs Romero winner...

If Romero wins, I figure they'll definitely do that.

 

[SKYNET]

I have no Idea right now. I'm leaning Cannonier but it's 51/49 at this point.

I'm actually thinking ahead to the future. possible Costa v Cannonier in a 5 round title fight.

Not sure about the casuals, but for a hardcore, that fight seems like total madness to me

can I get an AMEN

i got Whittaker by TKO. This is his most favorable matchup since Brunson IMO. Cannonier is better but he doesnt fight in that long range with counters which causes Bobby issues. I think he hurts him with one of those darts or kicks in the pocket, and then finishes him off

I agree, I must say I wasnconfident in that Brunson fight and would be similarly here. That said Cannonier is legit, this will be a tough fight, props to Rob for stepping up again so soon after a tough one against Till.

[MyFavSport]

Easy meal for Jared.

 

[Goldentrophy]

Hermansson vs Till then? Maybe Hall vs Romero winner...

Till has a bad injury so I can invision Jack vs Israel/Costa loser while Romero/Hall winner vs Edmen/Brunson winner.KG faces the loser of one of those matches while Till faces the other loser.

Cannonier

 

[wildchild88]

This is an awesome fight, really looking forward to this.

 

[The Half Blood Prince]

Such a good matchup

Cannonier is a true dark horse of the MW division. A win against Whittaker will show that is is very dangerous for Adesanya

Cannonier is very strong and hits pretty hard, it's such an even match up.

 

[The Half Blood Prince]

Jared is a better kicker than Robert, his leg kicks are vicious

I'd say his kicks are stronger but Robert has more variety such as his oblique kicks

Overall I feel like its a bit even.

 

[The Half Blood Prince]

Hermansson vs Till then? Maybe Hall vs Romero winner...

If Edmund beats Brunson by a viscious KO in the first round or something he will fight Till or Hermansson.

And then if he beats them he will get a TS since he is a very hot prospect with a lot of hype
