How Dricus Du Plessis Defended the Crown
The more of Du Plessis I see, the more I become convinced that he is that ideal fighter I have written about for so long: not asking questions but finding answers. It has never been more obvious than in this second Strickland fight.

The Dricus Du Plessis of dealing with jabs and teeps, bless. But on a serious note DDP seems to strategize better than most fighters. I'm putting my money on him for the Khamzat fight.
Hey slacky, the weird lunging southpaw jab that you talked about at the end of the article is the exact same punch that technical genius oleksander usyk stopped Dubois with. Dricus has found a way to be so goofy that he went all the way around to being technical.
well done jack
Thank you for the audio track Slacky, very similar to both these fighters I struggle to read beyond a 2nd grade level

A Middleweight who can actually stratgise is a sight to behold. It makes me wonder how the sport will evolve over the coming decades. And I'm exciting to see if Du Plessis's answering ability can deal with Khamzat's questions.

It'll be interesting to see what he tries to do against Khamzats wrestling. It'd be so cool if he somehow pulled it off, but the Brunson fight doesn't give me much hope
So you're telling me he's actually GOOD?!
