Chael Sonnen talks Robert Whittaker vs Yoel Romero

  1. If Darren till won against wonderboy with that one knockdown, Yoel should have won unanimous. The judging criteria in the ufc is poor and unclear. Yoel inflicted serious damage, perhaps long – lasting, on Rob. Rob poked Yoel alot but nothing significant landed for him, except maybe that one dome kick. Now if this was a karate style point based fight then Rob won. If you judge by significant damage and overall aggression – Yoel won.

  2. Whatever happens I want to see yoel again. Best of luck to Robert and yoel on their recovery. Thanks for the match guys!

  3. Casual fans say Whit won… legit mma fans say Yoel won!! You dont know anything about mma if you think otherwise, fact

  4. Kelvin Gastelum has always been underestimated since TUF 17. He was picked last for the teams because he was young and looked undersized. It was assumed by everyone for each match that'd he'd get beaten. The semi-final when he beat Josh Samman it was almost intended as a setup where it was assumed Samman would win and then fight Uriah Hall in the Final. Then "against all odds" Gastelum beats Hall.

    The very first fight I saw him in I genuinely thought he could actually win TUF 17. His strength and awareness was totally evident. And since then he has massively improved his punch and kick game and just got better and better. Very very tough match for Whittaker.

  5. Yoel won that fight. He didn’t make weight, but they didn’t give him the full two hours. It’s obvious that only way they would raise Yoel’s arm is if he finished him. Sucks.

  6. How mentally strong Romero is; Can you imagine.. trying to keep fighting, in the fifth round, but knowing that even if you win, you don't win.

  7. Jones vs cormier 3
    Withaker vs romero 3
