Humble, honest and good spirited. I hope Izzy vs Rob 3 happens at MW or LHW

[@thor3600]

Even all the Italian fans standing ovations this man that night. Bravo to him.

[@RokSlana]

I am starting to like this man. So calm, cool, nice.

[@Bluzzee]

I was screaming at Rob telling him to show marvin” he’s not done”” show that bïtch your still improving”🤣

[@christsang9728]

As nice as Rob is, you never mess with a man called the "Reaper". Block head got folded up like a Rubik's cube.

[@gardenballer6619]

ill pay that .lol.

[@razbusari703]

Rob is an excellent fighter and an outstanding man. Definite future hall of famer!

[@ronnyperez8474]

Rob is such a great fighter and honest guy like his honor and that he always takes the harderst fights

[@grdamic]

Put some f*ckin’ respect on my boys name

[@BigBass-xf5yi]

My opinion, he’s the best in the division

[@therodentryresistance95]

Awesome performance!!

[@gardenballer6619]

i love this super confident Rob. Pretty slick performance tonight

[@NicolaMaxwell]

Rob is an absolute joy to listen to and watch fighting. I almost stop blinking when he fights, my favourite fighter in the roster. So bloomin' chuffed!

[@Connor-qz8ke]

It’s crazy how humble he is too. He’s so calm righttt. Fighters like this are scary af . It’s almost like he hides the killer side too him . Like if you meet him in the street you wouldn’t expect him to be a monster in the fight game but imagine getting on the wrong side of him . That’s a no no for me lol

[@NicolaMaxwell]

@@Connor-qz8ke haha I know right?! He's had the same no nonsense attitude since TUF. I call him the smiling assassin and unpopular opinion I think he should've got the last win over Izzy. He fought patiently and his distance control was beautiful to watch. Just phenomenal! He's still so young too!🙌

[@Connor-qz8ke]

@@NicolaMaxwell 100% matey. He won that fight in my opinion. He’s so patient and technical. He knows how to win a fight . He’s the champ in my eyes . Izzy is so boring to watch

[@NicolaMaxwell]

@@Connor-qz8ke Couldn't agree more buddy! Glad I'm not the only one who sees that. Bobby Knuckles is the man. Marvin was a great example of trash talk gone wrong lol

[@Connor-qz8ke]

@Nicola Maxwell🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Honestly hahahahaha!! He said there’s nothing dangerous about bobby knuckles , and then gets absolutely dominated by him. Ohhh and you’re from Scotland . Hello from England lmao!! How is it over there ?

[@OnAeeir]

the true champ
