Keeping an eye on the movement of light heavyweights (up to 93kg.), Robert whittaker has controversial opinions about the UFC's decision to extend the chance of Magomed Ankalayev in fighting for the belt. In addition to stating that the organization does not like the Russian, the veteran declared that he believes that plans are being set up for a potential fight between Alex Poatán e Tom aspinall in heavy weight (up to 120,2kg.).
“Pereira deserves a rest, he had his second fight with I don't remember who and beat him exceptionally and then had a broken toe, so he deserves a rest. I guess I can look at it as: the UFC really doesn't like Ankalaev. For example, when he fought Błachowicz and drew, they simply crossed out his name. They said yes, he didn't have a good relationship after that fight, right. So either that or it's exactly like you said, Pereira needs some time, Ankalaev doesn't want to sit out forever. Follow me here, they are preparing him to fight Aspinall”, declared Whittaker on his channel YouTube.
Chosen to fight Aleksandar rakic No. UFC 308, Ankalaev regretted the organization's decision and assured that his next opponents are in trouble. On the other hand, Poatan continues without giving any clues about the future and generates expectations among his fans, who do not rule out Jan Blachowicz as a potential challenger for the belt.
