UFC Vegas 24 live stream: How to watch Robert Whittaker vs. Kelvin Gastelum online
The UFC returns to its APEX facility in Las Vegas this weekend with another stellar fight card. UFC Vegas 24 will be headlined by an intriguing middleweight encounter between former middleweight champion Robert Whittaker and former title challenger Kelvin Gastelum.
Initially, Whittaker was set to take on Brazilian knockout artist Paulo Costa, but Gastelum stepped in as a late replacement after the latter dropped out through illness. Whittaker heads into the fight on the back of a pair of impressive wins over Darren Till and Jared Cannonier.
Robert Whittaker seems to have recovered well since his knockout loss against Israel Adesanya and a win against Gastelum could land him a title shot. Kelvin Gastelum needs a big win to stay afloat in the 185 lbs division. Before his recent win against Ian Heinisch at UFC 258, Gastelum was on a three-fight losing skid.
However, since Gastelum is one of the very few men who were able to take Adesanya to the limit, a win against a former champion in Whittaker could also seal him another date with The Last Stylebender.
