Robert Whittaker, a former UFC middleweight champion, spoke out about the organization’s current champion in this weight Dricus Du Plessis. According to Whittaker, he will be able to beat Drikus nine times out of ten.

“I still believe that I can beat him nine times out of ten, that I’m a better fighter, and that my skill set is better than his. I went into a fight against a strong and hungry guy who was ready to leave everything he had in the octagon. I should have taken this into account, but I didn’t. Now I have food for thought,” said the fighter.

Let us remind you that Whittaker and Du Plessis already met in the Octagon, and then the South African fighter won by technical knockout.
