Whittaker had some advice for Adesanya ahead of the Imavov fight

Robert Whittaker had some advice for Israel Adesanya ahead of his fight with Nassurdin Imavov.

"Imavov has very good grappling. He's taken the back of almost every opponent he's faced. That's his key to winning because he's not going to beat Izzy by fighting him five rounds in the standup. He's going to move him down, try to take his back, so a lot will depend on whether Izzy can defend himself or not. Obviously, going into the fight, Adesanya has to keep in his head that there's no way he can give up his back."
