Former UFC middleweight champion Robert Whittaker showed there are levels to the fight game by brutally finishing top prospect Ikram Aliskerov.
Whittaker knocked out Aliskerov at the 1:49 mark of the first round in the UFC Saudi Arabia main event Saturday at Kingdom Arena in Riyadh.
Whittaker landed a right hand that put Aliskerov on wobbly legs. Whittaker pressed the action and dropped Aliskerov with a devastating uppercut before landing a few more punches against the fence, forcing referee Marc Goddard to intervene.
