Robert Whittaker vs. Marvin Vettori Targeted For UFC 275 In June
Former UFC middleweight champion Robert Whittaker and former UFC title challenger Marvin Vettori are expected to compete in a bout at UFC 275 on June 11.
Journalist Ariel Helwani was the first to report the news of the matchup via a tweet, although the promotion has yet to officially confirm anything regarding the booking. Whittaker is 3-1 in his last four Octagon outings and is coming off of a unanimous decision loss to current UFC middleweight champ, Israel Adesanya, in their rematch back at UFC 271. Vettori meanwhile is 6-1 in his last seven fights and will try to build on a unanimous decision victory over Paulo Costa at UFC Vegas 41.
