“I don’t think that Chimaev will be able to win this fight. I really do not believe in his victory, because Whittaker is far from a passing opponent. Robert will return to his feet after the takedown. You know, you don't really have to be a wrestler to have good takedown defense. In addition, he is larger and works well with his hands, ”said the American in an interview with Helen Yee.
Recall that Chimaev and Whittaker agreed to hold the fight, but there has not yet been an official announcement of the fight.
