UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya commented on the results of the fight against Robert Whittaker.
Recall that the New Zealand fighter won by unanimous decision in the main event of UFC 271.
"I knew that he would come out with everything, I knew that he would go to the end.
Last time I took everything from him, now he had nothing to lose. And as I said: I am the champion,
if you want my belt, take it.
Robert worked on his boxing. I tried to smash his leg because it worked.
But when he realized that there was a problem with her,
Whittaker began to act very carefully, to defend himself. But I pay tribute to him and his boxing coach,"
Adesanya said in a post-match interview.
