UFC free fight: Robert Whittaker puts on vintage performance against Marvin Vettori
Robert Whittaker isn’t going anywhere.
In his most recent bout, the former UFC middleweight champion proved to still be a world-class talent and a threat to the title, despite being 0-2 against middleweight champion Israel Adesanya. Whittaker (25-6 MMA, 15-4 UFC) put on a vintage performance, defeating long-time contender Marvin Vettori in a unanimous decision back at UFC Fight Night 209 in September 2022 in Paris.
