Whittaker names the winner of the potential Adesanya-Du Plessis fight

Dmitriy Kel Jan. 25, 2024, 4:25 p.m.

Former UFC middleweight champion Robert Whittaker shared his thoughts regarding a possible title fight in his division between Dricus Du Plessis And Israel Adesanya.

“Du Plessis will beat Adesanya. In the fight with him, Sean Strickland was the same as before, but Drikus passed him. Will he be able to do the same in a fight with Adesanya? We'll see.

Drikus is a difficult opponent, he is clumsy and constantly applies pressure. It doesn't matter if he misses shots, he shows incredible tenacity and moves forward. I’m betting on Drikus,” Whittaker said on The MMA Hour.
