Whittaker chose favorite in Strickland-Du Plessis fight

Former UFC middleweight champion Robert Whittaker commented on the announcement of the title fight between the current belt holder Sean Strickland And Dricus Du Plessis.

“I would choose Du Plessis because he beat me. His victory would give me the opportunity to get even. In general, I think that each of them is used to staging spectacular fights. I don’t know, but how can I doubt Drikus, remembering that he beat me?” Whittaker said in an interview with the YouTube channel Submission Radio.

Let us remind you that the fight between Strickland and Du Plessis will be the main event of the UFC 297 tournament, scheduled for January 20 in Toronto, Canada.
