It’s been a few days of ‘entertainment’ for Dricus du Plessis as the middleweight champion recently issued a statement. He had been soaking up all the news that had come out about his alleged injury, claiming that it could render him unable to fight for at least six months, as Khamzat Chimaev waits for his title shot. But the good news is, du Plessis isn’t hurt at all. ‘Stillknocks’ has also assured the fans that Dana White has given him his date for his next title defense as well, but it’s not in June.

“Okey so everyone had their opinions and rumors, and stories about a shin break and injuries, etc. I found it all very entertaining. Unfortunately, none of it is true. Myself and [UFC] already discussed a fight date and opponent,” Dricus du Plessis stated on social media. The June fight was never signed. I did not pull out of any fight. I am the champion. I know when I fight, you, as a contender, show up when we tell you to. Fight announcement coming soon, stay tuned.”
