JRE MMA Show #187 with Robert Whittaker

Whittaker credits moving up to light heavyweight and loosening his training approach with reviving his career and enjoyment of fighting.

  • Style evolution: Whittaker says moving up to light heavyweight revived his love of fighting after a joyless Middleweight camp vs Dricus, letting him eat carbs, enjoy camps, and fight freer.
  • Weight-cut math: He now walks around at 106kg (~232lbs), cuts to ~103kg to start camp, and sheds his final 15lbs in a warm bath rather than sauna or runs.
