Sean Strickland, former UFC middleweight champion, has announced that his next fight will be against the organization's current champion in the division, Dricus Du Plessis.
"The fight is scheduled, just now we're waiting for Dricus to decide when he's ready to lose," Strickland wrote on his social networks.
Recall, in January of this year, Du Plessis beat Strickland by split decision of the judges, taking the championship belt away from him.
