Robert Whittaker commented on the situation in the middle category, the former champion wants Khamzat Chimaev to fight for the UFC belt.

Robert Whittaker is a former champion of the UFC organization in the middleweight category. The Australian dreamed of regaining his lost title, however, Khamzat Chimaev stood in his way. A native of Chechnya, the wrestler quickly proved his superiority in his clash with Whittaker.

Robert Whittaker, despite suffering an injury, does not hold it against Chimaev that the latter demolished him wrestling. On the contrary, the Australian speaks of his recent rival in superlatives. Whittaker believes that Khamzat will pose a huge problem for any fighter currently ranked in the top 5 of the rankings of the up to 84 kilogram category.

– I am interested to see what he will show in his next fights. I think he’s going to be a nightmare for a lot of guys in the top five of our division’s rankings. Because I honestly don’t know how they are going to stop him being brought down.

Asked who should be the next contender for the championship belt, Whittaker did not think long. Robert stuck a pin in Sean Strickland in the process.

– I think Khamzat should fight Dricus Du Plessis right away. I think sitting and waiting should never be rewarded. On the other hand, I’m not the one who decides and I’m not the one who puts the fights together.
