8 Most Anticipated Potential And Upcoming UFC Fights
5. Robert Whittaker Vs. Israel Adesanya
This fight is interesting for one sole reason and it's that both of these men are killers in the cage.
Go back and look over Robert Whittaker’s career and you’ll recognize him as one of the toughest men in UFC today. He is currently on a nine fight win streak which includes two wins over Yoel Romero. In both of his fights with Romero he came back from behind to win while on the brink of defeat both times. It’s really no surprise this man is currently holding the Middleweight title, and if injuries don’t continually limit this man’s career there's no telling how far he can climb.
In the other corner there’s Israel Adesanya. He is currently an undefeated 17-0 in MMA and just took out Kelvin Gastelum to win the UFC interim Middleweight title. With only six fights in the UFC, Stylebender has made himself a star within the company very quickly.
If these men's last fights are anything to go by, then this fight will certainly be a fight of the year candidate by its conclusion.
