I only had a small play on Whittaker unan dec at +400, but have since rewatched the first fight again. Whit said his knee was "trashed" after rd 1, took some of Romero's best shots including the flying knee, and still clearly won a decision. Romero now a year older, struggling to make weight again and Whit looks outstanding. I think Romero comes in with a non-grappling gameplan and tries to conserve energy like the Rockhold fight. This means he will lose rounds and will likely only win by KO. For this reason I am confident in Whittaker -3.5 as I do not believe he finds the shot and the price is substantially better than ML. I only had a small bet on Whit unan dec +400, but I have since added 3u whit -3.5 -150. The weight cut issues Yoel is going through now is a bonus. Whit by wide decision or late stoppage IMO.
