UFC 193: Robert Whittaker focused on finishing Michael Bisping, not 'The Count's' inevitable trash talk

To say Robert Whittaker was excited upon hearing the news he was booked to face Michael Bisping in front of his hometown crowd at UFC 193 on Nov. 15, 2015 in Melbourne, Australia, would be an understatement.

Whittaker recently told Submission Radio he was "astounded" at the announcement, labeling it the "perfect fight" to stage in front of what could equal up to 70,000 screaming fans.

But how will Robert feel once "The Count" starts up with his inevitable trash talk? According to the Aussie, he won't spend too much time worrying or engaging, as he says that is simply not his style.
