Dricus Du Plessis has made a habit of opposing his opponents.
The middleweight champion has made it clear that he is not going to fight with the intention of trying to play Mind games and implement some verbal warfare.
'Still Knocks' believes that he only corresponds to the intensity of his opponents, with Du Plessis recently giving a lot of praise to a co -top middleweight.
There has not necessarily been a word war between him and Khamzat Chimaev prior to UFC 319, but that does not mean that the hype for this fight has not reached a fever.
The last face-off between Du Plessis and Chimaev gave fans one last look at the two men who will compete within a few hours for the title of 185 pounds.
Dricus Du Plessis claims that it was 'easy' to get under their last sight under the skin of Khamzat Chimaev
After he was rejected on Friday with Khamzat Chimaev during the ceremonial weighers, Dricus Du Plessis gave his first thoughts about what had just been taken.
As he said before, 'DDP' is happy to keep things heartily with his opponents, but if they want to go after him in one way or another, he will be a willing participant in whatever game they choose.
Both men were intense in the gaze, which led to the conclusion that he received his undefeated challenger.
He revealed why he believes this when he briefly jumps with the UFC down over the gaze and what it means for what perhaps the best fight of the year is.
“My husband, that's how easy it is to get under the skin of that guy, man. He reacted that way because he saw a real man in front of him. A real middleweight and he will feel it tomorrow night.”
It is not surprising that Chimaev's reaction to the face was much easier and until the point.
After he finally completed the last of his obligations, finally arrived with Fight Night, 'Borz' made it clear that he is ready to go.
“Just happy to be here and fight someone.”
The coach of Dricus Du Plessis believes that there were several important take -away restaurants of their first sight
Before the ceremonial weightings yesterday, Dricus du Plessis and Khamzat Chimaev came to the press conference the previous day.
The head coach of Du Plessis, Morne Visser, believes that there were different observations that he took away during the Vechtweek.
He told Submission Radio that, together with 'Stillknocks' dominance about Chimaev, established by holding his hands above his own, the actions of the undefeated challenger were not a good sign for him.
“If you look at that face, you know when two boys fight on the street and a man is pulled away and his friends save him a little. Dana came in and he pushed them apart and only then khamzat made a big sound.
“Why was he not so arrogant when he was standing right in front of Dricus? That's just strange for me. That just shows a bit of weakness.”
Within a few hours we will finally discover who will leave Chicago with the UFC Middleweight title.
