Australian UFC star Robert Whittaker has made an emphatic statement to the rest of the middleweight division on Sunday morning, stopping Ikram Aliskerov in the first round. Whittaker, 33, proved once again why he's one of the best in the 185-pound division, by demolishing his opponent in under two minutes.

Tom Aspinall isn't one to wait around. The UFC interim heavyweight champion is eager to return to the octagon and keep his momentum at the top rolling.  He'll get to do just that at UFC 304 on July 27 in Manchester, where he'll defend his title in a highly anticipated rematch against America's Curtis Blaydes.  The co-main event bout will be Aspinall's first return to the octagon since claiming the interim belt with an emphatic knockout victory against Sergei Pavlovich back in November last year.

On paper, the UFC 300 headliner should provide the kind of fireworks befitting the tricentenary card in Las Vegas this Saturday night. Both Alex Pereira and Jamahal Hill are frightening knockout artists and it would be a major surprise if both men were to see out the 25 minutes.  Hill was champion before having to relinquish the belt due to his Achilles injury, a vacant title claimed by Pereira against Jiri Prochazka. The bookmakers have Pereira as a narrow favourite but it is always revealing to see how fellow top UFC fighters past and present are predicting the fight.

Michael Bisping has responded to Justin Gaethje accusing him of 'talking b****cks' for suggesting Dustin Poirier should have the next title shot. Poirier, who was knocked out by Gaethje's stunning head kick in July last year, bounced back with a stunning win over Benoit Saint Denis at UFC 299. Bisping suggested the victory should make him the logical next contender to Islam Makhachev's title, a route that Gaethje took exception to on X, writing: 'Bisping talking b****cks.'

The consensus MMA GOAT wanted to move to boxing for a one-off match with Golden Boy after his last UFC appearance, a middleweight championship victory over Michael Bisping in 2017. However, St-Pierre was technically attached to the UFC at the time. In addition, White's bitter rivalry with De La Hoya did not help him with booking the fight. On the Pound4Pound podcast, St-Pierre said, 'It didn't happen because Dana White told me 'no.' After you die, you still have a few years as Dana White's hating Oscar De La Hoya and my UFC deal.' Depending on the job, the salary will fluctuate.

Lesnar, 46, has not fought since losing to Mark Hunt in 2016. The former heavyweight champion has appeared at UFC 100 and 200, so it would not be impossible to imagine at 300. The Englishman is currently on cloud nine after securing the interim heavyweight tile at UFC 295, as for Aspinall.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW - WILL GRIFFEE: Just how good is Paddy 'The Baddy' Pimblett?Many MMA enthusiasts are debating this issue.

Israel Adesanya must be sick of seeing Alex Pereira by now, the man many are calling his 'bogeyman' and 'kryptonite.' With five consecutive title defenses, the former UFC middleweight champion ruled the roost so dominantly in his division before rematching with his old nemesis last year. Pereira won two games over Adesanya in the kickboxing competition, with one of them falling short of a point of view, but many others were genuinely hoping for a shot at the champ, purely because it fit a tidy story. He sent those doubts and Adesanya in a bulldozing style to take their belt in the fifth round of their November match.

During that war, he shouldn't have been anywhere near a microphone.' It sucks... I just felt it was very unprofessional.'
