As far as name value goes, UFC 234 might be a two-fight show, but what a couple of headlining fights they are.
Middleweight champion Robert Whittaker competes in his Australian stomping grounds on Saturday when he goes for his first official title defense against Kelvin Gastelum in the main event of UFC 234. When we last saw Whittaker, he was surviving five more rounds against Yoel Romero (who missed weight, rendering their rematch a non-title affair). Now he once again faces an elite wrestler with dynamite hands. While Gastelum doesn’t have the freakish finishing power of Romero, he brings a non-stop approach that will perfectly match the fearless Whittaker.
