Du Plessis has agreed to a rematch with Strickland

Eric Nixick, coach of former UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland, has announced that current belt holder Dricus Du Plessis has agreed to a rematch with his charge.

"It's hard to emulate what Dricus does because he's very unorthodox, but he knows he does things in his own style. There are so many things we did wrong at UFC 297 ... I'm looking forward to this rematch.

Dricus texted a couple days ago, he was like, "Yo, I'd love to come out against you again, bro." I have all the love and respect for Dricus and his team, but that's our job," - quotes the specialist MMA Fighting.

Recall that in January at UFC 297 Du Plessis defeated Strickland by split decision of judges.
