"You always hope for the best, but you prepare for the worst, right? I was preparing for a 25-minute chop. I was preparing for war. I told you before - I have a hunter's psychology. I go out and start stalking my prey. I want to be a predator. I think I got it in the fight with Ikram," - said Whittaker at the press conference.
Recall, Whittaker knocked out Aliskerov in the first round.
