Dricus du Plessis: Kelvin Gastelum ‘took food off my table’ by pulling out of UFC 273

Dricus du Plessis is without a fight and the 28-year-old middleweight is laying the blame directly at the feet of the injured Kelvin Gastelum.

“It’s his fault,”du Plessis said of Gastelum on a recent edition of The MMA Hour. “He postponed to cancel the fight. Nobody wants to take a fight on a week’s notice. It’s hard to take a fight, especially on a week’s notice. And here Gastelum comes and waits until a week before the fight to all of a sudden say, ‘No, I’m injured,’ when he insisted on a new fight.
