ANAHEIM, Calif. – Robert Whittaker is back on the winning track and hopes consistency follows.
In the UFC 298 co-main event Saturday at Honda Center, Whittaker (25-7 MMA, 16-5 UFC) defeated Paulo Costa (14-3 MMA, 6-3 UFC) by unanimous decision in a thrilling striking battle.
“Obviously, I’m very happy with (my performance),” Whittaker told MMA Junkie and other reporters at a post-fight news conference. “I always look like this after fights. It shows. Plus, I had a firefight with Costa, so it shows a little bit (more). More than the win itself, I’m satisfied with what I wanted to achieve. I achieved that.”
