Whittaker predicted the winner of the Du Plessis vs. Strickland rematch

The rematch between the South African and the American will take place on Feb. 8 at UFC 312 in Sydney, Australia.

"I don't see this fight going any differently. Du Plessis is just a beast and he's going to come out with the same aggression and the same fight plan. What can Sean do differently to change the outcome?" said Whittaker on his podcast.

Recall that the first fight between Du Plessis and Strickland took place in January of this year and ended with the victory of the current belt holder by split decision of the judges.
