Robert Whittaker is now in serious condition

Staph infection in your stomach?

According to White, who spoke to TSN’s Aaron Bronsteter following Saturday’s UFC 220 event at TD Garden in Boston, Whittaker was dealing with a staph infection in his stomach that did not receive proper treatment. As a result, the 185-pound champ apparently is in serious condition.

“He had staph infection in his stomach,” White said. “From what I understand it wasn’t treated properly and started to eat away at parts of his organs. He’s in serious condition, so it’s going to be a minute before he’s back, I think. Hopefully it turns around quick, but that stuff is life threatening if not treated the right way.”

He won’t be back at least until 2019, the ufc can’t even give titles away.

(not at the thought of Romero, at the thought of your hideously callous post)

Take it easy, buddeh. I think Sherdog has enough collective sympathy to go around to all the seriously ill fighters.

That is the worst thing I have heard on sherdog for a long time..
You think it's good that he has a life threatening illness. Just so a roided 40 year old can be a champion..

Well if that's the case I hope you get a sti in you mouth and brain.. It's a blessing in disguise..

Gotta be a combo of the amount of sweat created rolling around on the mats, plus the humidity of the gym, not great gym cleanliness and also fighters not washing properly. Great breeding ground for bacteria etc.
