UFC 225 Results

The UFC returns to Chicago for one of the most anticipated events of the year. In the main event, Robert Whittaker will take on Yoel Romero in a non-title fight. These two first met last year at UFC 213 when they battled for the interim middleweight title. Whittaker won that fight and was later promoted to undisputed champion after the title was vacated by Georges St-Pierre. “The Reaper” has not fought since then as he has been battling injuries. Meanwhile, Romero knocked out former champion, Luke Rockhold, at UFC 221 to earn another crack at the title.
