Matt Serra Slams Dricus Du Plessis’ Coach for Criticism of UFC 319 Officiating

Matt Serra recently went off on Dricus Du Plessis coach, Morne Visser.

Du Plessis lost his middleweight title in a lopsided unanimous decision loss against Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 319 earlier this month. Despite Chimaev establishing a control time of over 21 minutes, Du Plessis’ coach complained of a lack of action. Even referee Marc Goddard standing them up twice didn’t suffice for Visser, who believes the referee should have forced more action. Serra doesn’t see Visser blaming the referee as a good look. The former UFC welterweight champ noted that “Stillknocks” didn’t have any answer to Chimaev’s wrestling.
