Robert Whittaker regards slightly heavyweight as
“Yes, maybe. Maybe. I’ve thought about it lately. Difficult to say. I feel that everyone says that I am a small middleweight, but it costs me a lot from me, regardless of whether I am a small middleweight. It takes me a lot to make the middleweight division.
“I feel better to be heavier, but I have short arms and I am not super long, and I don’t like to fight long boys, and there are many tall boys in the light heavyweight division, you know. But Johnny Walk also had a good victory at the weekend. It’s good to see him up. So I don’t know. Let’s wait.”
