Breakdown
Robert Whittaker vs. Yoel Romero
Robert Whittaker is an excellent striker with really good takedown defense and great cardio. The first fight between Whittaker and Romero was very close with Whittaker edging it out. Even though Romero got him down, he couldn't hold him there. This time, I don’t think that changes in the rematch, I expect a more one-sided affair this time. Robert Whittaker by late TKO.
