Former UFC middleweight champion and now commentator and analyst Michael Bisping is surprised by the fact that Khamzat Chimaev is the favorite in the fight against Dricus du Plessis.

ā€œI understand that at the beginning of the fight, Khamzat will pose a significant threat, but you can’t be both a sprinter and a marathon runner. If du Plessis can take Khamzat into the late rounds, in my opinion, he will have the advantage. The fact that Khamzat is the favorite at 2 to 1 is just madness,ā€ said Bisping on his YouTube channel.
