Former UFC middleweight champion Robert Whittaker summed up the results of the fight with the ex-title challenger Paulo Costoi.

The fight took place as part of the UFC 298 tournament in Anaheim, USA, and ended in the victory of the Australian by unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 30-27).

“This is exactly the kind of confrontation I was preparing for, this is what I wanted. I said that I would go forward, I tried to scalp him for the whole 15 minutes, but Paulo is a tough opponent.

I felt enormous pressure, I had to perform well, especially after the failure in the last fight. I want to get even with Dricus Du Plessis, and I'm not going anywhere. “I’m back in action!” Whittaker said in an interview after the fight.
