      Marshall Splosion His answers are that of a mature and wise man, not of a 26 year old. Bisping on the other hand acts like a 26 year old would. It's almost like Robert is messing with Bisping's head by taking the high road and not playing along the trash talk.

    • @jamesgomez9151

      EPSTomcat11 I agree, Whittaker took the high road and it made Bisping look desperate and silly.

  • @joeycoco3261

    i can definitely see this guy becoming one of the most dominent champs in this sport in the future. the technique and composure at his young age is amazing. and beating two of the baddest people in the whole of mma back to back in the span of 3/4 months. and getting injured in round 1 against a guy like yoel romero and being able to keep calm and adapt and win a 5 round fight is truly a sign of a dominent champ.

Hope he becomes a star. That 5th round was awesome, Yoel was gracious in defeat. Really wanted to see Yoel destroy Bisbing, then Whitaker could beat Yoel.

      Brian Adams idk about that one ive seen alot of muscle transformations by fighters moving up just 1 weightclass.
      But I guess Thompsons style of fighting would benefit from a leener muscle mass than big muscles like Woodley.
