UFC middleweight champion Dricus Du Plessis reacted to information that lightweight division champion Islam Makhachev may one day move up to his category.

"What can I say to that? Everybody has a dream and I always say never limit your dreams, dream big and his dream is really very big. I am very big," Du Plessis said in an interview with Kevin Ayoola.

As a reminder, Du Plessis will defend his title against Israel Adesanya in the main event of UFC 305 on August 17 in Perth, Australia.
