Drius Du Plessis doesn’t consider Khamzat Chimaev a boogeyman
Dricus Du Plessis began hinting at a Khamzat Chimaev fight after he beat Sean Strickland for the second time.
However, Du Plessis claims Chiamev is not the boogeyman he once was considered.
“People think of Khamzat as this boogeyman. That’s a fact. I don’t. I don’t see that. For me, I only see one thing, and that’s the potential to do good to my legacy. The potential to make my legacy even better,” Du Plessis said to Ariel Helwani…
“He’s really hard to deal with in the beginning of the fight, but so am I. When you go that hard, and Round 2, 3, 4, 5 comes, you still have to be there, and I’ve proven that I am there in those rounds,” Du Plessis said. “So that is 100 percent a situation where I see if he can last that long. He has to realize if he wants to come out. I’m still going to be there, like I was there in the first, ready to kill. That will never change in my game.”
Dricus Du Plessis is 23-2 as a pro and a perfect 9-0 in the UFC.
