Dolidze Responds to Whittaker’s Claims

Sports news » Dolidze Responds to Whittaker’s Claims

UFC middleweight contender Roman Dolidze has responded to comments made by Robert Whittaker, who recently stated he wasn`t interested in a potential fight between them.

Dolidze remarked on Whittaker`s recent activity, saying, “This guy who likes to talk has been knocked out multiple times, and in his last fight, he was decisively defeated. It sounds strange to hear such words from him. I always respect my opponents, and Whittaker is a fantastic fighter and a former champion. However, lately, he`s become too vocal and needs to back up his words with action. He should be careful with making loud pronouncements. I`m not suggesting it would be an easy fight, but a fight with Whittaker is definitely appealing to me.”
