Robert Whittaker, Hyder Amil, UFC Fight Night: Kape vs. Almabayev takeaways

On today’s episode of UFC Unfiltered, Jim Norton and Matt Serra are joined by former UFC middleweight champion Robert Whittaker and undefeated featherweight Hyder Amil!

Eager to showcase what he’s picked up since his loss to Khamzat Chimaev, Whittaker identifies the specific highly-ranked middleweight veteran that he’d like to fight next. Don’t miss as Bobby Knuckles discusses the 180º turn in his relationship with Israel Adesanya before ultimately breaking down what he thinks of this weekend’s Alex Pereira vs. Magomed Ankalaev main event at UFC 313.

Then, Hyder Amil joins the show fresh off his hard-fought win over William Gomis. He shares the incredible story of battling through multiple injuries during training camp, how his journey from the Philippines to the U.S. shaped his mentality, and what it’s like being coached by MMA legend Gilbert Melendez.

As the show shifts to recapping this past Saturday’s card, Matt wraps up the show by patting himself on the back for a perfect 3-0 showing in his fight picks — enough to erase 12.5 points off Jimmy’s early lead in their year-long, head-to-head battle.
