It's been a rough start to the TUF Heavy Hitters competition for Team Whittaker after losing the first three fights of the season, including bouts in both the men's heavyweight division and the women's featherweight division.
The latest setback may have been one of the most painful to experience, as middleweight champion Robert Whittaker put his No. 1 pick Anderson da Silva against Justin Frazier in a fight that was supposed to showcase his top heavyweight against arguably one of the weaker links on Team Gastelum.
Frazier ended up surprising everybody with a durable gas tank during the fight after experiencing serious conditioning issues throughout the entire show, and he ultimately used a heavy ground attack to stifle da Silva's potent striking arsenal.
