Love a good Whittaker interview live from his gaming chair with his headset on
Yeah lol
This is gonna be one of Chimaev's toughest fights to date. Whittaker is a tough and crafty fighter.
Because nobody cares Khamzat.
No I believe after burns he learned and improved a lot and he just beat usman I think whittaker is decent but he has 7 losses and is older I don’t think he can stop khamzat and think he will just out wrestle him
Pure class as always , and absolute dawg for accepting the challenge
Why is it that rob is doing interviews and khamzat hasn't done a single one
due to covid or he's eating gangster.
Dude is hanging out with the Taliban, sipping tea, playing cornhole.
Because he doesn't live in America. He also has issues getting into America which is why we haven't seen him fight in a while.
Rob the babyface
Rob is in Australia, wherever Khamzat is has internet(You'd hope)
@EyeXombie
5 rounds, could be trouble for Chimaev
If khamzat doesn’t finish him in the 1st
1 round could be trouble for Whittaker
Pure class, undoubtedly will be middle weight champion again 👑
Nah
@johnstephenson3019 undoubtedly? 😅
I hope Whittaker survives the submission attempts through the first 2 rounds.
I can see Whittaker stopping Chimaev late.
It’s either a Chimaev win by submission/points or a Whittaker win by TKO.
Whittaker is a difficult opponent for khamzat amazing fight 🔥
It’s always the fight that’s months away I’m so juiced for 😢
Whittaker is in for the fight of his life
Lol might be a tough first round. If it lasts longer, the gourmet Chechen doesn't stand a chance
@@triumph.over.shipwreckyeah sure like ddp controlled rob and put him in a d’arce lol
@@triumph.over.shipwreck xDD we ll see ufc casual
@@Mr.Bogarts cool
@@triumph.over.shipwreckyou finished eating Paulo Costa nutz and now you started with Rob 👌 how does it taste only you know
If Khamzat beats Whittaker people are STILL going to downplay his win.
Let’s go, Rob! 🎉
as much as a like Rob i really think somehow khamzat wins this.
somehow? he will maul him
Rob is such a G
rob shouldn't sleep on khamzat, he's a problem for anybody at middleweight
It’s gonna be similar to how ddp did him I believe.
Khamzat had trouble with Usman who was coming off the couch. Bobby gonna be ok
@@KameronDAaron mma math again. Strickland beat adesanya off couch and adesanya beat robbie twice😂
If DDP can take Whittaker down, imagine what Chimaev could do😢
@@KameronDAaron He was still training maybe not a full training camp. You dont just forget how to wrestle. Also chimaev was preparing for different fighter but nobody talks about that. If it was usman with undefeated record, who knows he would take that risky fight.
I'm sure he gets it
I enjoy rooting for Khamzat, but I can't root against Rob. Tough fight.
Get a root
Longest lasting black eye in history
😅😅😅
He just has to survive the 1st round kumshot usually fades after round 1
Thats what he said about dricus and look what happened. Dont sleep on fighters and dont underestimate them
What a great guy
Lets go whittaker!!!
Does he still have bruises from the Costa fight?? 😂
Crazy that heel stamp still there
@@Bbbbbbread ong bruh
Lets fast forward the days..so we wont wait for too long
Hopefully bobby gets the belt again
All for Rob but Chimaev slaps me with truth
I wanna see Whittaker vs Strickland
Robert Whittaker vs Khamzat will be epic.
Hey rob how’s your boy Alex has he still recovered from that knockout
That bruise from coasta still there his cheek bone gonna be solid now
I observed this was the Robert interview but you definitely noticed how both of the hosts mention khamzat ability in most of the questions. that's thing shows how khamzat hype is bigger and real. and I'm sure Khamzat will beat and finish to the Robert in June 23rd. and lots of peoples talks about khamzat move up the division is real problem for khamzat and also Robert think this. But we all see how khamzat grabs and takes him down to Usman like a kid. and also won that fight with a broken thumb. Khamzat vs Robert is gonna be a real war but I think khamzat will beat him.
Hes finally saying his name right😂
One of the GOATS. THE REAPER🎉🎉🎉
I’m with Rob on this one
Before finish 5 round khazmat will finish Whittaker
Whittaker is the definition of a "Tough Out"
I think so Rob. You have technical skills.
Megaaaaaan !!!!!!!
Khamzat wins definitely now
All this talk and Chimaev will win 😏
chimaev finally in an interesting fight, now we need shavkat to fight a guy where he could lose
Hater
dont forget, that's Kamaru Usman better than Shavkat Rakhmonov. I respect both the guys, they are elite fighter🙏
Aussie....Aussie.....Aussie.........lets goooooooooo
Khamzat showed signs of gassing and slowing down in two fights. One he went 3 rounds swinging with burns and the other he completely won a 10-8 round with a former champ and one of the best fighters in usman. Not enough data to say he slows down in fights. He just did alot more in those 2 fights than he ever did. I think rob has the skills to pick him apart if he survives the wrestling but if it goes to decision it could lead to Khamzat
Rooting for rob don’t get ragdolled
He’s working he knows it’s a title shot after beating Whittaker
Dude is so freaking overrated man honestly he gasses out early in fights and couldn't even finish a washed up old usman who's way smaller and fought on short notice plus he started losing the fight bad if it would have been 5 rounds he would have lost
Megan looked so much better before she destroyed her lips😩😩
costa vs whittaker didnt happen
instead whittaker ended up fighting with both of them
Megan should be asking questions more respectfully to fighters. It's a shame she used to be one herself and still got this tone
Its cuz she lost to Holly on Whittaker Romero 2, hes bad memories😂
🤡
roberts been beaten up before.. khamzat hasnt. rob not worried about a thing chechen is shaking
I don’t see why rob wont get choked out unconscious first round
People who think Whittaker is a good grappler are in for a shock
Agreed, hopefully it doesn’t go there
No one thinks hes as good as khamzat when it comes to pure wrestling but this is mma and all he has to do is survive the early onslaught and he steamrolls khamzat in the later rounds ( round 3-5 ).no shot khamzat wins that fight if he doesnt get a quick finish like inside 2 rounds
Whittaker grapled with romero whos a far better grappler than chimaev
@matthiasschroder3284 He's not a far better grappler at all. Romero had zero submission threats, didn't really chain wrestle, and didn't control on the ground. You could argue he has better wrestling credentials, but as far as its effectiveness for MMA, they are not even close. He's a bigger version of Henry Cejudo who could get you to the ground but doesn't do much once there, and the cage made it easier to defend, while Khamzat is a live submission threat and has great cage wrestling and control
@@matthiasschroder3284you don’t know what you are talking about
Unfortunately I think it's an easy fight for Khamzat, especially when he hasn't got to worry about the power coming back at him.
Casual
Wait what? Lmao there's huge power. U have no idea what it looking at and I'm putting real cash on Whittaker this time hazmat gonna lose
@@RubbersPVPsure you putting all your 2-3 bucks on Rob 😂
@@bmwbavaria3991 I know ppl gonna make him the underdog I think it's perfect opportunity to make triple or more on my money. I have a big hunch that chimeav cannot hang in a five rounder vs a big middle weight like whittaker. He was former champion, been in there with the best of his division, I say he gets a knock out or a TKO either early when chimeavs coming in, or late when chimeavs gassed. I don't think chimeav can hang with true middleweights, and whittaker is big and fast for the division, and doesnt gas. We are gonna really see chimeavs chin tested. Oh and more than 3 bucks
5 rds favors Rob...Khamzat has to finish him early...tough fight to call
Easily Forest Whittakers toughest fight
Khamzat has probably lost the drive he used to have. Based on missing weight and inactivity. I expect Rob to win.
khamzat gonna walk through dude ... inshaallah
I always loved Rob picked him in Ultimate Fighter to be champ, however I have to go with my Muslim brother Khamzat,
He got finished many times so im nlt worried about rob stuff
After Dricus took down Whittaker with ease I don’t think Khamzat will have any trouble taking him down
LETS GO REAPER
So for over 20 years this dude has been in the USA and making money and still need an interpreter for English interview , it makes sense all he can do is fight , l don’t know the English language would be such a deal for him or maybe he’s just mocking us
Hard to see Rob getting a rematch with DDP or the trilogy with Izzy for the belt. Would like to see him fight Strickland next or maybe a rematch with Costa.
Khamzat has to get him out of there in the 1rst or rob finishes him late 4 or 5
ROBERT WHITTAKER DEFEAT KHAMZAT CHIMAEV PLEASE🙏🏻
Imao Robert Whittaker has zero chance what are you smoking
@@Calcium620😅
Why Do you want Him to beat Khamzat?
Never keep dreaming
The Reaper!
Dude needs to keep them hands up stop the wrestling and do damage control
Whittaker will be Chimaev's first loss. Khamkat gets more 'civilized' every day. He has already lost the Eye of the Tiger. Lambos and luxury apts in Dubai. Khamzat will be expiring by R3.
whitaker 73.5" reach
khamzat 75" reach
The guy on the left is awfully biased over Khamzat.
What about the guy on the right?
Robin? Interviewer got a death wish?
Yes. I thought I was the only one who noticed
he said Robert first - think it was just a slip
@@SoSyNiKaL no, he hints that rob is similar to Robin Hood - a legendary heroic outlaw originally depicted in English folklore and subsequently featured in literature, theatre, and cinema.
ROB NEVER WRESTLED A WRESTLER OF THIS LEVEL BEFORE. ROB WILL LOSE IN RND 1.
After fighting roel twice in short time he's chin was never the same. He eill get kod by chim . He gets wobbled in almost all his fights. Sad truth . He may have the most complete game at middle weight. But his chin is long gone
Khamzat can hardly finish round one 👊🏾
Talk about this women allways has to be center of attention, all the others let the fighter the star be at center but not here 😂
Megan is bad ❤️
I'm gonna put my money on Whittaker i think he can win and
Megan Anderson looks like she doesnt have a lot going on up there with that resting face she has
Robert saying he could beat khamzat in a wrestling match 🤦♂️
You obviously are a casual, google "Yoel Romero" and read his wrestling record before you reply to me champ
@@innerbalancedogtraining5547 🤣🤣🤣Robert got taken down by dricus 🤣 by a head throw 🤣 Romero was 40 and took Robert down 7 times between the 2 fights. This was in mma. Now imagine with no striking just a wrestling match 🤣 go do more research, "champ"
Whittaker by decision. Think about it.
this phil murphy guy is like giving me weird and neurotic almost uncanny valley vibes
He will kill rob in 2.5
Kahmzat will figure it out, by 2nd round easily tko
Yoel Romero couldnt get Wittaker down and he got his knee torn early in the 1st. Wittaker's striking is too clean, Khamzat doesnt last 5 round with him
Who’s she?
Robert is nice guy . But can't beat khamzat
Hobbit vs Shimaeeevvv....
Khamzat can’t travel in most of the world at the moment so the English speaking media don’t get to him
Let's go Whittaker.
I came here to read funny comments on megan. Please I need them
Hazmat might out wrestle Rob
Yoel couldn't. I doubt he will.
@@JrE-il7cfhe out wrestled usman nuff said
@@Random_youtuber2200usman was on what like 5 days notice lmaoo
@@JrE-il7cf Khamzat has far more effective wrestling and much better grappling overall than the Romero that fought Rob in 2017. Romero was 40 years old, had a fused neck and at that time it was 17 years ago since he won his silver medal at the olympics. Romero in his wrestling prime would have smoked khamzat in a wrestling match but 2017 Romero was far removed from his wrestling prime and far worse than he used to be.
U really think so 🤓
Whittaker is just a gate keeper.
is that Megan fookin Anderson??
She have some kind of surgery?
Submission win for khamzat
Chimaev is levels above Robert. If Khamzat takes his back its over.
The same way he finished Usman right?
@@fumanboy thats torture. Usman got tortured to the end. Usman 3 losses in a row
@@user-bg3dc5bw6pusman def won some of the second n third round… im guessing I didn’t watch the fight
@@WARBUCKSMMA same will happen to Whittaker, but people are still not aware what Khamzat is bringing next on the table
@@WARBUCKSMMAa lost is a lost imao stop complaining about other people fight you miserable low life
Khamzat is overrated. He had a hard time with burns and usman. Whitaker is way scarier
Don't do crack... it messes up the brain cells and causes you to make these type of comments in public. How embarrassing.
Has been 🥱 🚮
Rob a dawg
Khamzat will finish Whittaker
He better do it quick dude has one good round in him 😂
Lol, no.
Like he did to gilbert? Imagine what Robs gonna do to him.
Definitely
nah he couldnt even finish usman or burns
If Usman beat khamzat without training and gave khamzat to much respect Imagjne him trained Usman can own 185
Keep crying and lying American people cry. And f kamzat finish rob you start finding excuses get ready a good one excuses poor kiid
Please stop using usman short notice as an excuse even though it's a short notice uman was training everyday and he was in shape and i seen people who won in short notice also
Whittaker will finish Khamzat
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Agreed
😅😂
He can put Khamzat to sleep easily with one of his interviews 😴😴
😩
Khamzat wins
