    A tragedy that Whittaker vs Costa wasn't even given a 50k bonus or considered the best fight of the event. Costa's Van Damme kicks and Whittaker's jab and two punch combo was poetry. Whittaker showed his level in round 2 and 3, which was superb.

      It was a good fight but definitely not fight of the night. Merab vs Cejudo, Amanda Lemos vs McKenzie Dern and Volk vs Topuria were all better fights than Rob vs Costa. Neither deserved performance of the night too, they did good but not better than Topuria and Hernandez.

      @@jonsoler3648 What? Dern vs Lemos had too much of Ronda Rousey sloppy and clumsy striking battle mixed with some ground work. Merab vs Cejudo was mostly a one sided wrestling affair for Merab similar to Whittaker's striking battle against Costa where Whittaker slowly took over quickly with some moments for Costa with the damage overall.

      Nope, he's definitely not happy how the fight gone, as man, we all have pride and common sense, if that was a street fight, Robert knows he got the worse of it, and that's what is bothering him, all this excuses about flu and bla bla bla, is just trying to hard to not feel down mentally, he's still trying to make himself believe he still the best version. Costa came of an 18 months inactivity and still almost knocked him out, and at the end of the fight, locking at Roberts face, he knows he got an ass woop, he was clever to get the points as he was more active, but every time Costa landed it hurt him badly, his face was a mess at the end of the fight

    Whittaker looked solid against Costa. I really looking forward to seeing his next fight, must be either Cannonier again or Strickland.

      @@zinidinerahman4168Strickland was always a tough fight for Whittaker because he is a very defensive fighter, who uses his jab to great effect. Whittaker relies on blitzes and usually he has the best jab in fights. Strickland may be able to take that away from him in which case I would maybe favor Strickland in the fight. It's very interesting and a great fight for Whittaker's legacy.

    The fight with Paulo Costa was great, that was easily the best version of Costa we've seen since the Romero fight, and arguably the best Costa ever, and this "past prime" version of Robert Whittaker beat him. That being said, Strickland and Du Plessis rematch are tough fights, I'd honestly favor those two against Rob, I'd give Rob a better chance at winning a trilogy with Israel

      Since moving up to middleweight in 2014 Rob has only lost to two people.

    I was kinda rooting for costa this fight. Such a entertaining beast. But rob was sick with his super quick blitzes. Costa was a brute and almost KOd rob
