This is the second time the pair has fought and promises to be an incredibly intense contest as the well-rounded Whittaker takes on the wrestling-heavy style of Romero (although Yoel is absolutely no slouch on his feet either).

UFC 225 Fight Card – Rafael dos Anjos vs Colby Covington

An interim welterweight title will be on the line as RDA stacks up against the smack-talking force of nature that is Colby Covington in what will be an explosive encounter. We also have a more curious match-up in CM Punk vs Mike Jackson, which can only be described as interesting, as two armature fighters content on the biggest stage in mixed martial arts. Both of these fights can be seen on BT Sport 2, and on UFC’s Fight Pass.
