Whittaker on Strickland's championship: 'I can't wait for the future'

Let us remind you that today Strickland defeated Adesanya by unanimous decision and became the new middleweight champion.

“There is movement in the division. Congratulations to Strickland, a great comrade in arms. “Can’t wait for the future,” Whittaker tweeted.

It is worth adding that Whittaker is definitely not yet a contender for the fight with Strickland - in his last performance, the Australian was knocked out by Drikus Du Plessis.
