Whitaker is a product of good matchups

[UFCBlackbelt]

He is an excellent fighter , in his ability to fight wrestlers due to his good takedown defense and strike well.

But he has not fought a good striker since Wonderboy, and he got smoked in that fight

 

[louiscyphere]

Let’s not forget he inherited his belt instead of earning it.

 

[Leinster Rugby]

I'd say he's more a product of his parents.


And yeah Yoel Romero is totally shit at striking, you muppet.

 

[elbowsandwiches]

He beat Romero the entire fight on one leg

 

[Super Black]

Romero whooped that ass

Oh yeah, totally paper champ.

That's bullshit, not his fault gsp didn't defend and defeating Romero in my opinion is not only way more impressive than beating the retired ww goat but a much more difficult match up.


He earned that shit as far as I'm concerned.

How in the flying fuck do you suggest he "earn" his belt when both Bisping and GSP blatantly ducked him?

I can't stand this place's stupidity nowadays.

 

[sabretitan]

Just a easy convenient casual sherdog thing to say. Watch more fight rather than looking up fight records bud

 

[Fesaine]

Romero is a great striker. It seem like mma fans always like to discredit fighters striking ability just because they have a wrestling background.

He fought fucking Romero ffs
Way bigger task than Bisping or bloated retired GSP

GTFO

Funny thing is, Romero's actually trained boxing since his early teen years. His half-brother was a world champion boxer. He used to sneak out at night to train it against his father's will. This is all from the Joe Rogan podcast btw.

So yeah, so much for that idea!

Maybe it's just me being on this site of years....but why do posters still bite to posts like this?

Jacare too

He didnt headkick brunson or KO weidman with his BJJ blackbelt, and Rob starched him

Uriah Hall is no striking slouch either

You're the product of a few beers + a malfunctioning condom.

I sincerely hope you are trolling. If not you may be the dumbest poster on these boards, and man is that saying something.

 

[louiscyphere]

It’s just a fact he didn’t beat the champ to be the champ. Not saying he’s a can but do you think he’s happier getting gifted the belt?

 

[Hirashin]

This is all Rockhold's fault. He shat up the division.

Curiosity? I kinda want to know if the OP is genuinely retarded.
