Kelvin so tough took this fight short notice and still did not fall back in the 5th

Whittaker only cuts for Gastelum every time he steps forward in his series. Must break the rhythm. Can’t just walk in right without the feints and attitude switches against this kind of high-level footwork. # UFCVegas24

Must be happy for Arlovski. Big win!
