With UFC 290 on the horizon, former middleweight champion Robert Whittaker refuses to take anything for granted
Jared Cannonier delivered a highly active striking performance that left both Israel Adesanya and Robert Whittaker surprised
Robert Whittaker was born in Auckland, New Zealand, at Middlemore Hospital. His father is an Australian of European ancestry, while his mother is Mori and Samoan.
“He’s a great fighter, I’ll give it to him. But I know how that book ends. I’ve read that book twice already. The first time was a quick read."
“It would be tricky. I would be firing those kicks down the middle like you would not believe. I do not think my right foot would touch the mat. He’s a tough guy."
If Robert Whittaker defeats Marvin Vettori, he thinks he deserves another shot against Israel Adesanya.
The last stylebender is one of the best middleweights in the world to become the UFC world champion.
After UFC London, Israel Adesanya and Darren Till exchanged some words.
