Dricus du Plessis is gearing up to defend his UFC middleweight title against Israel Adesanya in UFC 305 this weekend. Earlier this year, du Plessis secured the title by defeating Sean Strickland in a split decision victory, marking a significant moment for South African sports.
Calling out Adesanya as his next opponent, du Plessis is set to face off against the Nigerian fighter in Perth, Australia. The highly anticipated fight is scheduled to take place at the RAC Arena on Saturday, 18 August, with viewers in South Africa having to tune in early on Sunday due to the time difference.
The clash of styles between du Plessis and Adesanya adds to the intrigue of the matchup, with Adesanya known for his striking prowess and du Plessis bringing a unique and well-rounded fighting style to the octagon. Despite du Plessis' perfect 7-0 record in the UFC, Adesanya remains confident in his abilities and is determined to secure a victory in the title fight.
The exchange of words between du Plessis and Adesanya has only fueled the excitement surrounding UFC 305. Both fighters are focused on delivering a memorable bout that will captivate fans and showcase their skills in the middleweight division.
