So what happens to the belt if Yoel wins?

[mb23100]

Is Robert still the champ? How can that be?

*Yoel

Whittaker will still be champ. Just like Silva would have still been champ if he had lost to Lutter (missed weight), Griffin, Irvin, or Bonnar (all at 205)

*Yoel

Damn autocorrect

 

[Espresso]

Yoel gets immediate title shot at 205 if he wins

 

[TheHNICuLuv2Hate]

Rubber match

 

[campbecc]

Whittaker keeps it. They probably have an immediate rematch.

It gets "El Cucuyed"


aka...dissolved, vacant.

Nah idk

 

[King in the North]

No idea. Logic would tell us that in a non-title fight, the champion retains the belt regardless of the result.

But this is the UFC in 2018. So who knows.

 

[trident]

It'll be a first. They'll raise Yoels hand and Dana will put the belt around Whittaker.

 

[Erocthadon]

Minowaman becomes champ immediately.

 

[Horriblehim]

Ufc better be thinking about it, there's a real possibility whittaker gets tkod

 

[oldschoolmmafan]

The belt won't be on the line, Whittaker would remain champion.
