Dricus Du Plessis is radiating confidence in his abilities to prevail over his potential opponents and continue his reign as the UFC middleweight champion. Recently, the South African fighter described several fighters like Nassourdine Imavov, Michael 'Venom' Page, and Shara Magomedov, as easy opponents.
For context, 'Stillknocks' recently made scathing personal remarks about Magomedov after 'Bullet' discredited Du Plessis as the UFC 185-pound champion. In response, the fan criticized the 31-year-old for possibly setting up a fight against Magomedov.
Additionally, while suggesting that Imavov should be the next contender for Dricus Du Plessis' title, the fan said:
"MVP beat him, stop looking for an easier fight 🤨 Imavov should be next."
