‘Borz’ made a pretty compelling case at UFC 308, scoring a quickfire submission victory over Whittaker. With the win, Chimaev moved to the No. 3 spot in the 185-pound rankings and appears to be well on his way to his first title opportunity inside the Octagon.

Robert Whittaker is working on a new style after his loss to Khamzat Chimaev and explains why he couldn’t stop Chimaev’s takedowns.
