Former UFC middleweight champion Robert Whittaker spoke about his mood for the upcoming fight with Paulo Costoi, which will take place on February 17 at the UFC 298 tournament in Anaheim.
“Paulo is a strong guy. He is a big and powerful puncher. He is aggressive. He is very dangerous. He has strong punches and kicks. If you let him do the fighting, he will bully you. He will take advantage of this passivity and go after you.
I don't intend to let him do that. I'm going there with bad intentions for him. I'm going to fight this battle to really hurt him. That’s just the mentality I’ve adopted for this fight because I want to get back on the winning track,” Whittaker said in an interview with Middle Easy.
