Robert Whittaker Looks To Secure A Big Win
4 years agoRobert Whittaker (21-5) has a huge opportunity in Saturday's co-main event to interject himself back into the title picture if he can knock off the surging Jared Cannonier. Whittaker has shown the ability to go to the limit or finish his opponents, with 14 of his 21 career wins coming by finish. The Reaper has only lost once in his last 11 bouts, and that was when he dropped the title to current champion Israel Adesanya. Whittaker is on a mission to earn back his title. DraftKings has the former champion listed at $8,000, which makes him a slight underdog to his opponent's $8,200 price tag. Whittaker has averaged 77.7 points per contest over the span of his UFC career.
