Contender for the UFC middleweight championship belt Dricus Du Plessis took back the words that he recently said to the organization’s lightweight champion Islam Makhacheva.
“To be honest, I was not a fan of Islam Makhachev. His style, the way he fights... I didn't like watching it. Now I have to take back my words. I bet my head is cut off - this guy is very good! The way he came out and just knocked Volkanovski out was incredible!” Du Plessis said.
