[@tothetop2498]

Robert got that if I die I die type look in his eyes. Should be a great fight!

[@rithrean]

They both respect each other you can tell. Whitaker is the underdog and has a lot to lose. Khamzat has a lot to prove because of his long lay off. Khmazat even said that he really likes Whitaker because he is very respectful and a nice guy, which everyone knows in the MMA community. He is also the smallest guy in the the MW division that hasn't backed down from fights. Win or lose I am a fan of both fighters.

[@jnightmare0]

@@tothetop2498robs a demon 😂

[@ER-yx9cp]

@@rithrean True however I don't think Whittaker is the underdog I think its pretty even actually. And yea Robert’s the veteran and experienced fighter here who has a lot to lose and Khamzat has a lot to prove because of the Lay off as you said. I think khamzat is gonna struggle taking Robert down and I think he's gonna be a tough fight just like the Burns and Usman fights. Fire matchup tho Fs and its a much better and makes more sense of a fight compared to Aliskerov and Whittaker

[@sandman62100]

If Max is able to defy all odds and reclaim gold then we need to place him as the greatest of all time. No debate. What this man has accomplished it's even hard to put into words. Double champ and if he moves to lightweight triple champ. He did all of this all without ever needing to play a character. He stayed true to himself and did so with the utmost integrity and honor. He is a man we should respect. A courageous man. A family man. A cute man. A man of principle.

[@mannyblackstar]

Topuria hasn't achieved anything remarkable so defeating him would not be a big deal. If Topuria was like 6-9 title defense and finishing all his title fights then yes GOAT You people throw GOAT status so casually.

[@mikeoxlong920]

A cute man 😂 ayoooo

[@GG-xx9ep]

​@@mannyblackstarLol Topuria is the hottest and best guy in the division right now. It's a pretty much big deal for Max to beat him. However, yes I don't think that puts him in the goat debate lol. Bit of a stretch. But for featherweight, I'll agree.

[@marcosibiza]

Yeah, what ever.......Holloway , knocked out for sure

[@hokagemurked4205]

⁠@@mannyblackstarCasual. You can’t say he hasn’t done anything remarkable, I don’t even like the guy but he knocked Volkanovski out cold and Volks resume speaks for itself. Also he finishes pretty much everyone besides 2 decision wins I believe of his 15. Point is it’s definitely a big deal if max can get this done and reclaim the title.
