The real question, what headphones is Rob wearing? Need.
Costa vs Whittaker. Best pull out game vs worst pullout game. Lmao. Rob’s got a big family. Looking forward to this one.
Ok this was funny 😂
Underrated comment 🤣
Costa's probably got more kids than Rob, but he just doesn't know it. 😂
love the way volk and bobby knuckles represent australia
bobby knuckles vs Mike Perry bkfc at 205
Hahaha they are the best 😂🎉
@@ziggyjohnston5302 bobby knuckles isn't a bareknuckle fighter type of guy. At least he doesn't seem to be that type of guy based on his personality & how he fights.
By getting ktfo?
@@rman229 aww why would you try and make us sad with your comments awwww
I am absolutely loving the energy the reaper is bringing into this fight
Seems dark
Secret juice taking this one by decision or tko
@@clarkkent2220lmao yeah like he knocked out rockhold right 😅
@@clarkkent2220 Not a chance.
He's overcompensating after he got pucked about by dricus last time
Crazy how fans turn on fighters so fast. Don't be surprised when Rob beats Paulo Costa. Costa hasn't fought in a long time. The division has had time to pass him by. Rob lost to the champ and the former champ. That doesn't mean he is done for. He might not win the belt but he will stay at the top 4 or 5. Nobody takes as many tough fights as Rob takes.
He was doing pretty decent against Izzy in the second fight too
means very little, Costa is shi+ lol
@@Mr-E. he definitely was. If there’s a 3rd, it can either finally be his night. Or he gets steamrolled like Volk vs Max 3. But the way Izzy downloaded Pereira for their last fight, I think Izzy takes it again
(Friendly reminder Blessed Express actually won Max vs Volk 2 without question)
The former and next champ
@@Mr-E. Hell you can even claim he won. I had Izzy winning but after watching it again after and breaking it down you can see why some had Whittaker ahead
Never miss a Rob episode. Let's go, boys!!
You can tell Rob is seriously locked in
Can’t underestimate Costa great fight can’t Wait
What a fighter and what a great guy Robert is!
I can't wait to be at UFC 298!!! Let's go Rob!!
😂 you’re funny bro. Since the 2 Romero wars, he fought Izzy and lost fair and square.
But since then he ‘lost’ to Izzy, which I’ve watched the fight 3 times and imo he won 3 rounds to 2.
He then regardless, went on to beat and dominate Kelvin, Jared, Marvin and Darren till. Before losing to DDP.
But again, dumb new fans like you LOVE talking out your arse 😂
Come on rob get that KO Round 2
A lot of people don't realize even though these guys beat the hell out of each other they are more than willing to help each other in times of need
Everyone ever: Paulo
Australians: Paul-O
Whittaker is a great role model for the public and is such an entertaining fighter!
He truly is. I hope to be half the man, husband, father and overachiever he is 💪🏽
@@Nameplease12blacknobility Get a grip.
Rob vs Marvin is what this will look like...
Lmfao
this interview was awesome, great questions!!!
Les go, Bobby. Reclaim what's yours.
I always enjoy watching when Submission Radio interviews Robert Whittaker!👍Robert Whittaker is still a very relevant and dangerous fighter in his division! Excellent interview Submission Radio!👍💥
Let’s go Rob!
Let’s go, Robert!
Favorite fighter . Let’s go Bobby
Hope to see Rob return to form and school Paulo this upcoming weekend.
Cmon Robby! Lets get this one and get closer to the belt.
Interesting that you asked the question about Cordeiro. When I watched the Embedded's prior to Rob's fight with Gastelum I recall thinking that Kelvin was getting much better pad work than Rob was.
Love the Reaper!! Looking forward to this fight
How could you not like Robert Whittaker.....classy guy...we need more of this on so many levels.
Robert Whittaker
12year in the ufc! man time flys!
Man I’m getting old ✌️
Meh.....
All fun and games till Costa starts the fight as a southpaw
All I want is for Rob to become the MW champ again
That's not to much to ask
Me too man. And I think he can. He’s still young.
Rob has been in many wars, and that takes it's toll.
Only cannonier and romero were wars
@@rml4289 Plus ktfo by Adesanya and Dricus
I respect bobby knuckle. he has his own legacy in mma. One of the best. But its hard to see bobby win this fight.. costa is a Stud. And he has power in his dirty boxing. Anyhow. Its great to see bobby fight and perhaps land some nasty kick to costa head.
This fight will let us know whether DDP loss was just a blip / off day or it's the start of the decline of Sir Bobby Knuckles.
If Robert wins it should be Robert vs Sean for title shot
Unless Sean gets a rematch be he won
Most ridiculous thing I've read.
💯💯
Rob has only lost twice and is 33 years old, with a full family. Imagine hating on this man. And yes, he won the rematch with Izzy..
His lost 4 times, wonderboy, izzy x 2, DDP
He won fuck all againt izzy, shut up, deluded rob fan
Agree he beat Izzy second fight and is not only an inspiration but a role mode that myself and many men aspire to be.
Removing mma, a husband and father. A phenomenal example of a man.
Only nobodies, bums and losers who’ve achieved nothing hate on him
@@paisleymc24 timed out of 20 ufc fights? Pretty fckn good if you ask me lol
Win 5 and lose 1 (to phenomenal fighters who are/were either ufc WORLD CHAMPIONE, or WORLD CHAMPIONS in another sport).
In Middleweight, no. @@paisleymc2
I love Whittaker but after seeing what Dricus did to him his last fight I’m not confident that his chin will be able to take Paulo shots
Don't let me down this time Rob . LFG
I got whittaker. Hes proven more, fought tougher guys.
yeah i think he out points paulo. Paulo could possibly get a KO but i don't think he will.
@@Fitkid7672I got costa icl. Whittaker is quite chinny whereas costa can take much more damage. I feel like it will be similar to his fight with vettori except whittaker doesn't have vettori chin n get dropped.
I think Whittaker just got hit with an extremely well placed strike in his fight with DDP....for lack of a better word, DDP could've gotten "lucky" with the that straight punch because in high speed replay you could actually see the entirety of Whittakers upper skull deform under the immense impact if that strike, just the fact he wasn't rendered fully unconscious astounds me
@shaquilewalker7672 yea Paulo and Whittaker both have similar styles of high output striking, give the power advantage to Whittaker. Paulo kinda just looks scary whilst Whittaker really has strong strikes AND great kicks. Whittaker has great combinations he always follows with a strong head kick.
Im not in the mood honestly couse im afterwork trying to run Baldurs Gate properly in my shty pc.so cheers Rob,ill watch later
Good to hear bobby counting hes blessings at 6 mins odd. Houseo boys stand up set a tone for the youth. Les goooooo
Kapcer had Kurt Angle eyes before Kurt Angle eyes meme even drop
Hoping to see Rob get the dub and hand Paulo his walking papers
Xena !! Classic 👏😆
My number 4 UFC best fighter in the World 🗺
Respect to beneil cool dude 😎
Go Bobby!!!
Rob ftw
Rob is in Anaheim!? Crazy

Yall said The reaper was done after ddp. Mfrs he coming for that title getting it this time. Enjoy it could be this legends last real run at the 185 title.
You the goat but don't underestimate Costa like you did dingus duplexes, u can't use the same excuse twice guv'ner.
Guv'na*
How on earth is he the GOAT?
@@Obiodum_ nobody said he's the goat. Learn to read bro. Smdh
@@Last_Chance. Might want to take your own advice "bro" and read the OP, this time slowly. Mugu.
Costa is going to run through this guy
Honestly think rob has a chance against ddp to take the belt again
I don't see Whittaker winning this one but good luck to him. I hope he does !
So you think costa who last fought 40 year luke 2 years ago is gonna win lmaoo delusional
@@wokehit9872 yeh i do buddy. What you gonna do about it lol
@@Trekz86 laugh at how much of a joke you are
@@wokehit9872it’s possible costa wins 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ I hope rob smokes him tho
@@Trekz86😂😂😂😂 get him told
A lot of people doubt Whittaker will win. A lot of people doubted him after his first loss to Adesanya as well.
Rob is over his chin is now made of glass and a shot from palo
Whittake needs to work with tim tszyu again. he did for a good while there leading up to the gastelum fight and his hands were looking sharp asf. And he kept drilling those kicks. I felt even in the ddp fight he barley threw any head kicks even if they arnt landing clean he needs to keep throwing them cause eventually itll pay off. He relied too much on just trying to box ddp an his hands wernt looking as sharp compared to gastelum fight. First time i seen him get man handled in wrestling too it was crazy he couldve put it on ddp but just threw himself sttaigh into the big shots. Hope he learns and fixes his mistakes in order to come back to the robby that was decimating everyone like the vettori fight aswell.
King's.
Nobody is bulling Costa. I love Rob but he also is not what he used to be. It will be tough.
He isnt what he used to be? Based on what? One fight ?
Hes 33, prime fighting age
UFC HAWAII.
IF Costa doesn't pull out AGAIN!
Or Rob. Both of them have pulled out the same amount of times
@@jayn6943 yeah but 2 of Paulos withdrawls are vs Rob. And one he wasnt even injured. And screwed with Robs payday by withdrawing last minute because of an already signed contract he wasnt happy with.
Like them being even means nothing when 2 of them are withdrawls from fighting Rob
@@drunkpaulocosta9301
We both know that that's not true. The one in Perth was never booked. UFC didn't even inform him about the Perth card.
I remember an interview right after the match was announced. He said that he was surprised about the announcement since there was no discussion about it. And he kept pressing for the contract for well over a month. When they finally send it the offer was 70k hahahaha
No one in their right minds would accept that.
They tried to do the same thing with Figgy last year.
If Marvin and deal on Costa on the feet, Rob will toy with him. De’Sean better look out if he has to fight Rob
Very funny we have not seen Paulo or heard from him….against Khamzat he was all mouth ….and we knew he won’t turn up..sorry wrong he did turn up….jsufor the flight and returned after landing
To be fair, the dude had a litteral hole in his arm for the khamzat withdrawl
the only reason I'm sure Costa will show up is because they'll cut him if he pulls out again
Exactly my thoughts, he has to show this time around. Or he'll pay Robert to pull out instead lol
Costa will pull out 💯
Or Rob. Both of them have pulled out the same amount of times
@@jayn6943 yep spot on
If costa pulls out they will probably release him but I doubt it since he sells
I honestly think he will be cut if pulls out again
I love bj. He's a great guy.
Love Rob Whittaker's fighting style but hate his chin....He nearly got finished in his fight against cannonier as well.....I think a weak chin is the worst problem for a fighter who aspires to be a dominant champion....
💪🇦🇺💨
Costa not showing up
I don't get it . . . when Rob came on the scene, I didn't like him. Not really sure why . . . I just didn't. Now I love the dude . . . one of my favorites for sure.
Good stuff 👍 More Rob, no Colby.
UFC 621.
Bob Knucks gets the KO
UFC.
Whittaker is the man
PERFECT betting on 3 of the last 4 UFC cards, ALL PLUS MONEY BETS💰💰💰
No Robert you not gonna do Paulo like that you will got your retirement ass whoop this time you r done bro u been middleweight champion but not no more
Middleweight ATTENTION !!! write this down
Rob vs Costa
Izzy vs DDP
Shaun (top5) vs Khamzat
Jared top 5 vs Bo
Ding ding LETS GET IT ON !!!
Bo vs Khamzat
Rob vs Shaun technical
DDP vs costa (car crash )
If Izzy wins 300 and Periria wins he goes for triple gold
🤔
Yeahhh, right reaper you bully Costa, 🆗just like you bullied Drivuss😅😅😅😅..The Eraser is gonna finish you 🫵in second round…Paulo Costa, Let’s go🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Ye right lil bro after getting pucked around by dricus😂
It's a big ask!!!
😂Ddp don't want no 300smoke😅
Sean did a retirement number on him. 😅
For me rob has looked flat his last 3 fights. I can’t see him beating costa
its over with robert tbh hes not the sane person
Words are Cheap Mozzie we'll see, that's what you said about DDP LoL 😂 and look what happened
trt wit
Itsnt it funny how fickle mma fans are. 😂
Mainly the casuals, sadly with Connor, Izzy & Khabib most of the fans now are casuals.
MMA fans aren't very clever. They like to follow the crowd and be apart of the hive mind
Haha bro the mma ‘fanbase’ is the most pathetic and toxic out of all sports 😂 a bunch of bums who’ve never trained let alone competed let alone won LET alone won any championships.
Regional. National or global lmao
Yupp. We all said he’s gonna run right through DDP. Now we’re questioning the heck out of his future lol. But no worries - Costa won’t show up
@@StallionFernandonot the problem anymore. All of them went to O'Malley and Strickland
ddp son
Bobby knuckles going to sleep :(
Need to know if he's taking Paulo seriously and completely healthy so we don't hear any ddp excuses again
Just dont pull a Strickland and say "To the death".. then go the whole fight at 70/80%.
I guess people are just going to act like DDP actually beat Strickland?
He did Tannerhard.
Not as worse as Stricklands dad.
@@agi2160basically didnt
@@kevinmalone584 Actually, factually, and literally did, Malone.
I think they even gave him a belt with it.
Whittaker needs to mix it up more with his grappling and actually try to go for a Steven Seagal head kick this time. There have been too many excuses after the Plessis fight but was always easily hit from an opponent in a southpaw stance...
I agree he is well rounded definitely needs to mix it up
Really? He beat every south paw before DDP. You must be new because he in the last DECADE, has only lost to Izzy who’s one of the greatest of all time especially middleweight. And arguably won the 2 fight.
And to DDP, who you may not know, is the current middleweight champ and on a 7 fight winstreak in the ufc, with 5 finishes.
Those are the only 2 people to beat him.
So please explain your weird and stupid comment lol
And I’m a South African Aussie
@@Nameplease12blacknobility What?!? Watch Whittaker vs Thompson, Till, Adesanya and Plessis again. Whittaker ended up doing the same mistakes against Plessis, which he used to do against southpaws, so he has his own bad habits. The reason Adesanya and Whittaker have had so much success at middleweight until now is because the middleweight divison has lacked elite grapplers for the last 6+ years. Adesanya, Alex, Romero, and others never did any submissions at all. They're all one trick fighters. Even Whittaker hasn't submitted anyone for over a decade now and has ZERO submission wins inside the UFC. The middleweight divison should be ashamed of itself considering that Adesanya has been taken down around 30 times during his career and nobody could do anything about it...
Paulo by KO
Its Hobbit Hwhitaker
Costa will beat his ass😂Whittaker still sleeping from last fight😂costa is a more technical fighter w huge power and robert fights the same way every time
yea 2nd this
He isn't evolving
Someone tell Kacper that toothbrushes and toothpaste is cheap😂
🫥
You guys just said he just had a kid in reference to his weight haha. Robert is a guy in case you're wondering
Men usually put on weight when the wife gets pregnant.
We hope that Paolo the clown doesn't just withdraw
Costa beats him. Rob is cooked
Honestly Rob is a great fighter but he shouldn’t talk after that performance vs dricus that was terrible 😂 Rob should talk and take costa lightly costa can beat him and if Rob loses his career is over two losses in a row he won’t get any title shots
Izzy is coming back shortly gonna reclaim his title vs dricus the stylebender gonna shock the division yet again smash everyone
Fuck punctuation, eh?
