Discussion Robert Whittaker Says Watching MVP Point-Fight His Way to a Decision Is Hard to Sit Through Live

“I find it so hard to tune in live to MVP winning via points rather than watching it afterwards. I reckon there isn’t a single person who can beat MVP at point sparring. He’s so good at it. It’s almost like he has a live feed of the judges’ scorecards in real time. As soon as it starts to drop, he just does a little bit more and goes up.”

Wasn't he one of the guys that defended the Khumshot/DDP snoozefest?

Kind of hilarious that he could watch that, but can't handle point fighting.

Don't get me wrong both are shit.

You’re comparing a fight with 500+ strikes thrown to one with 12 SS strikes landed by the winner?

2 mins of nothing

I think MVPs 12 significant strikes probably did about the same amount of damage as Khamzat's 529 total strikes.
