Adesanya called the winner of the Whittaker vs. Chimaev fight

Dmitriy Kel Oct. 24, 2024, 3:30 a.m.

Former UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya shared his prediction for the upcoming bout between another former belt holder Robert Whittaker and Hamzat Chimaev.

"I just don't think Robert is the guy to mess with. Look at his last fight - hopefully people will remember who he is.

I think Rob will do it again, but definitely not this early. I think he'll catch him in the later rounds. But first he'll have to weather the storm and survive. I'm betting Rob finishes him in the fourth round," Adesanya said on his podcast.
