He said:"Anyone that says it's a boring fight is a casual... If you’re a fan of the sport and you’re not fascinated by Chimaev's ability to control someone as dogged as Dricus, who’s gotten out of things time and time again, who physically never gasses, super strong, has cardio for days. If you’re not fascinated by such one-sided domination, then you have to be a casual."'The Reaper' added:"Because you never see this. This level at a championship fight, this level of control, we just saw someone get crucifixed for 15 minutes. How can you be a fan of the sport and not think, Wow, that’s crazy?"Check out Robert Whittaker's comments below:Robert Whittaker names the fighter who has the best chance against Khamzat ChimaevSince making his UFC debut, Khamzat Chimaev has proven to be an unstoppable force, maintaining an undefeated record of 9-0 within the promotion.During the aforementioned discussion on the MMArcade Podcast, Robert Whittaker mentioned Reinier de Ridder as a potential threat to Chimaev's dominance, saying:"De Ridder. I think de Ridder's got a good shot because the person that has Chimaev the closest fight, in my opinion, has been when he fought Gilbert Burns. That was because Chimaev was respectful and cautious of Gilbert's jiu-jitsu game and de Ridder’s a ground player. He’s a tall, bottom player jiu-jitsu guy."He added:"Then, if he does respect his ground, like he did in the Burns fight, and it becomes a bit of a slugfest, I think de Ridder's really unconventional. He’s got some annoying attacks and shots that might give Chimaev some grief."De Ridder is currently undefeated in the UFC with a record of 4-0. His most recent win came against Whittaker at UFC Abu Dhabi on July 26.
