GDT: UFC 298: Volkanovski vs. Topuria

[Tobias Kahun]

Costa looks better than I expected

 

[Avs_19]

Good first round. Already better than anything we saw last fight.

I think Costa takes it just because of the last strike.

 

[Davimir Tarablad]

Chin seems fine if he can survive that

 

[Chaels Arms]

Most Costa thing ever to somehow land that after losing most of the round.

 

[pistolpete11]

Wow. Wild round.

Costa looked great until Bobby Knuckles started taking about half way through until he got kicked in the face in the last 10seconds.

 

[ZDH]

I still give rd 1 to Whittaker but I can see the other side

 

[Deadpool8812]

He's said from day one he wants to slowly climb the rankings

Yeah, that ain't up the rankings

 

[CDJ]

I don’t recall costa having a kicking game like this

 

[MD thaivuN]

Costa is becoming Luke Rockhold 2.0

The kicking game, the model's face & body and the balding

 

[CDJ]

That’s Robert’s round

 

[ZDH]

Rd 2 easily Whittaker

 

[Mickey Marner]

Pretty sure Costa threw more high kicks in this fight than the rest of his career

 

[pistolpete11]

19-19.

Those calf kicks and combos are great.

 

[Avs_19]

What a response. Fun fight so far.

 

[Deadpool8812]

19-19

whoever wins this 3rd round, wins it

 

[Chaels Arms]

Rogan is not realizing other than the kick at the end of round 1 Whittaker has blocked every single head kick.

 

[Taytro]

Costa looks great but looks like he's fading and it's allowing Whittaker to blitz and land decent combos. Close and good fight.

 

[Deadpool8812]

Pretty sure Costa threw more high kicks in this fight than the rest of his career

Yeah, seems like he should have been doing that earlier in his career

 

[Neutrinos]

I'd like to see Costa throw a left kick to the body...

 

[Tobias Kahun]

29-28 whittaker.

 

[CDJ]

29-28 Whittaker

 

[Taytro]

I think Whittaker took it but I can easily see the judges going the other way based on the big events in the fight.

 

[Mickey Marner]

I think Whittaker took that, but he definitely wore his damage more, so you never know

 

[MD thaivuN]

close fight. could go either way

 

[Canadiens Ghost]

Entertaining fight. Too bad it wasn't a 5 rounder.
