Du Plessis took back his words about Makhachev

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.
