That’s why Robert ‘The Reaper’ Whittaker sounds so settled when he talks about Australia’s Alexander Volkanovski heading into his hotly anticipated UFC 325 rematch with Brazilian Diego Lopes on Sunday, 1 February in Sydney. “I think Volk more or less wrote the blueprint to beating Lopes in the first fight,” Whittaker says in an interview with Man of Many. “I didn’t see enough changes in Lopes’ last fight to suggest he can give Volk a different look”. “Seeing Lopes in his last fight, he looked the same as he did in the Volk fight,” Whittaker says. “But he didn’t have answers for the pressure, the power, or the volume.”Essential ingredients that Volkanovski has in spades as we approach UFC 325.
