Dricus du Plessis shares bizarre one-word response after fan asks him to let Khamzat Chimaev take the South African down 'three times' for his parlay

Dricus du Plessis replied to a fan's request to materialize his parlay related to the Khamzat Chimaev fight. The anticipation level for du Plessis' next encounter is already massive as he is expected to lock horns with Chimaev.

The South African boasts a couple of submission victories in his UFC career with a reputation for having a decent ground game. However, Chimaev's previous fights are a testimony to his exceptional ground skills, which have troubled most of his UFC rivals to date.

The fan commented on one of du Plessis' recent posts, expressing that he wanted the South African to let Chimaev score three takedowns in their potential encounter to make his parlay a profitable one.

The comment read:

"Bro just let him take you down three times for my parlay bro come on".
