During his 32 years of existence, there have been a number of extremely entertaining trashers in the UFC, but middleweight champion, Dricus du Plessis is currently considered one of the best.
A way in which the UFC has gained so much popularity is because personalities such as Chael Sonen and Conor McGregor are extremely entertaining on the microphone.
Current middleweight champion, Dricus du Plessis has a different style of waste with the aforementioned duo, but it is generally considered the best on the microphone currently because of his track record.
In anticipation of his UFC 297 title fight against Sean Strickland, the South African usually reduced the Macho Strickland to tears after raising a traumatic experience from his youth.
Fast forward to his UFC 305 title defense against Israel Adesanya and Du Plessis again brought his opponent to tears during the press conference before the fight.

Dricus Du Plessis explains how he honors his garbage conversation
As with every trash talker at the elite level, fans have wondered whether the dirt talk of Du Plessis is planned in advance or whether it is just outside the cuff.
Prior to his UFC 312 Main Event Rematch against Strickland, 'Still Knocks' explained how he honors his garbage conversation to try to get the most out of his pre-combat meetings with his opponents.
“Pre-repearsed is hard to say, people always ask me to do, I practice these things,” he started explaining in an interview with Main Event.
“I just know my opponents inside and out and when it comes to me, this is my life, this is all for me, I know everything there is to know, I am not going to a press conference and say I am me Go say to get under his skin.
“I give you the chance to be respectful and if you try to bully me or try to be disrespectful and try to be a smart ass, I will put you in your place,” he went on.
The champion has claimed that if Strickland tries to go under his skin for their rematch, he will put it back in place, but not with pre -colored lines.
“Driving in advance, there is no way to realize, you don't know what is being said, what is being asked, you have to be on the spot for things like that.
“It looks a lot like a fight, you can train as much as you want, but that changes because you don't know what will happen in it,” Du Plessis admitted.
Sean Strickland takes back the range of UFC 312 'Pact'
Only a few weeks after their Rematch, Strickland du Plessis offered a 'men's agreement' and asked him to make a pact to hit alone during their fight.
Nevertheless, Du Plessis closed the ridiculous range of the former champion and stated that 'there are no peats between lion and men'.
Since then, 'Tarzan' has declined his original offer after the response from Du Plessis and has welcomed a 'hug on the floor' with the champion.
