Robert Whittaker is garnering a lot of sympathy online after his submission loss to Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 308 on Saturday. UFC commentator Daniel Cormier shared a graphic photo of Whittaker's bloodied front teeth pushed completely out of alignment.

However, there have very rarely been doubts about his ability in the octagon. The middleweight submitted Whittaker in the fourth minute of the first round of their fight with a ‘face crank’ - which resulted in an instant tap from the 33-year-old.
