Robert Whittaker blasts ‘scummy’ Daniel Cormier for leaking medical photos – ‘People thought I was dead!’

Welcome to Midnight Mania!

Robert Whittaker is still at least a bit annoyed at how Daniel Cormier handled his loss to Khamzat Chimaev.

The result was already a tough one for “The Reaper,” who was riding a serious win streak into his high-profile battle vs. “Borz.” After fending off the grappling assault for a couple minutes, Chimaev found his way to the back and instantly tapped Whittaker with a face crank. The quick submission was soon explained: Whittaker’s bottom row of teeth had imploded, due to both Khamzat’s impressive squeeze and some former jaw injuries.

In the immediate aftermath, it was Cormier who released the photos of Whittaker’s bloody mouth online. In an interview with Ariel Helwani, Whittaker revealed he never gave Cormier — or anyone else — permission to share those photos on social media and was a bit bothered by the whole thing.

“I was super annoyed. It’s such a scummy thing to do… DC took a photo off the other guys phone to post all over socials… Is that not scummy?”

“I was super annoyed,” Whittaker explained. “Because it’s such a scummy thing to do. The doctor took a photo of my mouth and said, ‘I’m just going to go show Dana so that he knows what’s up, Dana and Hunter [Campbell].’ Cool, do that. And then DC took a photo off the other guy’s phone to post all over socials. Is that not scummy?”

He continued, “I don’t care that much … most people would say it kind of looked really bad, right? Cause it was posted all over the place, I was getting like condolence messages! People thought I was dead. I would’ve liked to control the reaction a little better, but it is what it is.”

It’s hard to listen to Whittaker’s side of the story and not immediately think HIPAA! Of course, we’re discussing an Australian cage fighter and retired color commentator not a US-based doctor-patient relationship, but the situation still feels like a violation of Whittaker’s privacy. It’s certainly not a great way to treat a well-respected and highly decorated former champion.

Of the current Bantamweight elite, I’d give Cory Sandhagen as good a chance as anyone at defeating Merab Dvalishvili (which is to say, I’d still pick Merab). A perfectly timed jump knee seems like one of the only ways to win!

A confusing story in two parts …
