UFC Saudi Arabia just took place at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh.
In the main event, former middleweight champion Robert Whittaker took on surging contender Ikram Aliskerov in a short notice fight.
Whittaker looked determined as he entered the cage and as soon as the fight started, he stepped on the gas pedal. After wobbling Aliskerov with a hard shot, “The Reaper” landed a flush uppercut that put a stop to the fight.
“I’m the boogie man. I’m the best in the world. The most dangerous matchup for anyone in the division,” Whittaker said. “I will fight anyone.”
