Dricus Du Plessis Doubts Khamzat Chimaev Can Reinvent His Game

The ex-middleweight champion believes Chimaev will bring the same style in his first title defense against Sean Strickland, not a sharper stand-up game. “I don’t think he has the ability to change,” Du Plessis said, adding that Chimaev cannot “match any good striker.” Du Plesis says his own improvements will let him beat Chimaev “at his own game” next time.
