Michael Bisping: Dricus Du Plessis being an underdog vs. Khamzat Chimaev is 'insane'

Michael Bisping is baffled by the odds for the middleweight title fight between Dricus Du Plessis and Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 319.

Dricus Du Plessis (23-2 MMA, 9-0 UFC) defends his belt against Chimaev (14-0 MMA, 8-0 UFC) in the Aug. 16 main event at United Center in Chicago (ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPN, ESPN+).

Du Plessis has opened up as an underdog against unbeaten Chimaev, which Bisping thinks makes no sense based on both fighters' resumes.

"The fact that they've got Dricus Du Plessis as the underdog is insane," Bisping said on his YouTube channel.
