Whittaker moving up? Bit late mate, shoulda done it years ago when Izzy was cleaning him out.
took Rob to a close decision, then got finished. Can't hold that against him forever.
Robbie is a legend but the clock is ticking. Light heavyweight might give him a second wind though.
Can't believe he's 35 already. Feels like yesterday he was smashing people at 185. Time flies eh.
Another career move article? Just let the man fight ffs. Sick of the analysis.
Good on him for adapting. Gotta know when to change things up. Hope he gets a good run at 205.

These journos act like moving up is a big deal. He's just chasing a last payday before retiring. Nothing wrong with that.
lol imagine him vs Pereira. Would get sparked.
nah, Pereira would flatten him. Different weight class though.
People forget how good he was at his peak. One of the best middleweights ever. Respect the guy.
Bet the house on him losing his first fight at 205. Father time is undefeated.
time can get stuffed, Rob's just hitting his stride now.
people said the same about Jan and Glover. Age is just a number in that division.
there, he might surprise. Lots of guys thrive at 205.
