Not really because adesanya though Cannonier was gonna smoke Whittaker. So Robert shocked everyone and adesanya also. He was incredibly technical and much better than even in the Till fight. I definitely see the rematch going differently than last time. Adesanya is at his pinnacle. He reached his prime and his striking is literally perfect so u can't get any better but Whittaker is getting close now plus he has the wrestling advantage and we seen today what happened with striker vs wrestler again.
