Middleweight title challenger Kelvin Gastelum was greatly upset by the sudden cancellation of his championship fight against Robert Whittaker at UFC 234 last weekend. The TUF 17 alum then expressed his disappointment by declaring himself champion and parading around the arena with Henry Cejudo’s UFC title belt on his shoulder.
Whittaker was in the hospital at the time undergoing surgery for his hernia and collapsed bowel that forced him out of the fight, but he did find out about Gastelum’s little stunt. In a video he released through his own YouTube channel GrangeTV, the champion simply laughed it all off.
