Former UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya expressed his opinion that another former titleholder Robert Whittaker will be able to get an early win over Ikram Aliskerov in their upcoming fight at UFC on ABC 6.
"It's a good fight though is a huge step up for Aliskerov. Robert is a former champion. The guy is still in the hunt and he's still hungry. That's why I'm picking him. I think Whittaker will start working really hard in the second round. Rob will get past the first round and start attacking his opponent, but who knows? On the other hand, we haven't seen Aliskerov in a real fight yet.
I just know how good Robert is. I give him the win, probably in the third or fourth round by technical knockout," stated Adesanya.
Recall that the show UFC on ABC 6 will take place on June 22 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
