On To the Next One: What’s next for Robert Whittaker after quick knockout win at UFC Saudi Arabia?
Robert Whittaker closed the show at UFC Saudi Arabia with a quick, and brutal knockout of Ikram Aliskerov, and sent a message to the top of the middleweight division in the process. While “The Reaper” hinted at wanting to be the backup fighter for the Dricus du Plessis vs. Israel Adesanya title fight at UFC 305, would that be enough to get him the winner, or will he need another fight?
On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee discuss what could be next for Whittaker following his second consecutive victory. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Alexander Volkov after his dominant decision win over Sergei Pavlovich in the co-main event, Shara Magomedov following his third-round knockout of Antonio Trocoli, Volkan Oezdemir after his nasty knockout of Johnny Walker, and more.
