Strickland: "Whittaker was a tin can in the fight with Chimaev"

Former UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland criticized Robert Whittaker for his performance in his fight with Hamzat Chimaev.

As a reminder, Whittaker lost to Chimaev by first-round submission last October.

"Rob is known for performing as either a freakin' superstar or a tin can. And he was a bloody tin can. He was simply put under too much pressure," MMA Junkie quoted Strickland as saying.
