Robert Whittaker spells early trouble for Magomed Ankalaev if he doesn’t wrestle Alex Pereira at UFC 313. Ankalaev (20-1-1 MMA, 11-1-1 UFC) challenges light heavyweight champion Pereira (12-2 MMA, 9-1 UFC) in Saturday’s headliner at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas ( ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPNews/Disney+, ESPN+). Ankalaev is confident that he can stand with “Poatan,” but Whittaker thinks that would be a costly mistake.
