Whittaker: "The rematch with Du Plessis will be different."

Dmitriy Kel June 24, 2024, 3:33 a.m.

Former UFC middleweight champion Robert Whittaker says he wants to get even with current titleholder Dricus Du Plessis for his early defeat last July.

"I'm interested in Dricus. I want to think that my rematch with him will go differently. You can see for yourself - since our fight I've only improved and gotten better. I can't say I'd beat him right now. Dricus is a good fighter. But I feel like I'm capable of more," - quotes Whittaker BJ Penn.

Recall that on June 22 in the main event of UFC on ABC 6 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Whittaker knocked out Ikram Aliskerov in the first round.
