Du Plessis named the timing of the next fight

Former UFC middleweight champion Dricus Du Plessis revealed when he plans to return to the octagon.

“I have already spoken with the UFC. Presumably, I will return in the first quarter of next year. Late March, early April are ideal options for me,” the fighter is quoted by Sportskeeda.

Recall that Du Plessis has not fought since August, when he lost to Khamzat Chimaev and lost his title. This defeat ended the South African's streak of 11 consecutive victories.
