Robert Whittaker thanked Khamzat Chimaev after their fight.
"I will say that Chimaev did me a favor by ridding me of my teeth. I've always had bad lower teeth. Since I was nineteen I couldn't bite into an apple with them. They were always terrible and I should have gotten rid of them years agoNow they are gone and I don't need them. My life is better without them. Fun fact - when they were removed, I had a huge cyst in my jaw. Apparently, that's the reason I've had ongoing problems with these teeth. So everything happens for a reason."
