Former UFC middleweight champion Robert Whittaker shared his mindset for his upcoming bout with unbeaten prospect Khamzat Chimaev.

"I expect him to be tough and aggressive from the first second. I have prepared for that accordingly. This is the toughest fight of my life and so I will start very hard like a sprint for the first 5-10 minutes, but I can also stretch the fight out over five rounds. I'm going to war," MMA Junkie quotes Whittaker as saying.

Recall that Whittaker and Chimaev will fight on October 26 as part of the UFC 308 show in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
