The UFC will make another attempt at running the matchup between Khamzat Chimaev and Robert Whittaker, this time at UFC 308 in October.
After their first booking for the UFC Saudi Arabia main event in June fell apart on short notice due to health issues for Chimaev (13-0 MMA, 7-0 UFC), the promotion will again try to pit the unbeaten sensation against former champion Whittaker (26-7 MMA, 17-5 UFC) in a five-round bout on the Oct. 26 card at Etihad Arena on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi.
