Dricus Du Plessis’ coach, Morne Visser, doesn’t have much respect for Khamzat Chimaev’s striking.
Du Plessis is scheduled to defend his middleweight title against Chimaev in the main event at UFC 319 on Saturday at the United Center in Chicago,. Many believe Chimaev’s elite wrestling could be a surprise for the durable champion. However, Visser is confident about his fighter holding his own on the ground against “Borz.” Visser claims Chimaev has looked as good as he has so far because his opponents don’t want to wrestle him. Visser instead expects “Stillknocks” to give Chimaev a taste of his own medicine on the ground.
