Beneil Dariush, top UFC lightweight, chose the favorite in the upcoming fight between the organization's former middleweight champion Robert Whittaker and former title contender in this division Paulo Costoi.

“As for Whittaker versus Costa, I’ll choose Robert. This guy is just a machine. He has good balance. I trained with Robert, saw how he prepared. Therefore, I don’t see how he can lose. In general, I want Whittaker and Volkanovski to win at UFC 298,” said Dariush.

Let us remind you that the confrontation between Paulo Costa and Robert Whittaker will take place on the night of February 18 in Anaheim as part of the co-main event of the UFC 298 tournament.
