He Dominated Africa's Best Fighters Before Getting in the UFC - Dricus Du Plessis 

Dricus has become my favourite fighter, not just from his fight style but his character and how he carries himself, AND NEW!!

And this is why he is the real african champ the others were born in africa like dricus. But Dricus Du Plessis the fighter was MADE IN AFRICA, MOULDED BY IT.

No wonder Dricus is such an animal in the cage, the amount of savages he had to fight as a young prospect is insane.

Clicked this by accident and this is excellent compiling all the fights chronologically and the editing is spot on, hell yea

That fight against the guy who said he was gonna beat him with his elbow was insane. And the way dumplesis leached onto him like a limpet was pure strength

And now I his the UFC middleweight champion of the world, amazing 🤩

Impossible not to love this man

Great video, my man! I'm cheering for Strickland, but your work did DDP proud!

What a talented natural fighter. His instinctive reactions are awesome. The best in the world, From South Africa!!!

I want to find more efc footage. Those fights look legendary

Rob Whittaker saying recently that he didn't strategise or prepare properly for his Du Plessis fight (which I think is fair, he didn't know what truck it was that hit him), but it's all here. That athleticism, determination and not afraid of the violence, that ruthlessness. It's bizarre how even those in the fight business get duped by the notion of "technique" and don't see the results for the lack of it. I think Dricus may have a profound effect on MMA. He trains every aspect of it, doesn't respect boxing rules for striking, but instead, I want to close that gap, I just need a wobble and it's the beginning of the end, and I'm not dancing about waiting for an opportunity. His speed with counters whilst kicking, his speed with takedowns, and it's great that he's a powerful striker who also grapples like a maniac and gets subs. He's also made just being really frigging strong glamourous again. As a person, he's a great role model for taking this ridiculous taint away from MMA, that it's just psychos and roughnecks and it's all blood and mindless violence. No. It's a sport. And quite the sport it is. Complex, dynamic, unpredictable, entertaining.

New found respect for duplessis, bring that belt home !

Hard not to like this guy i think he is going to grow on alot of people

Great video, thanks.

As a fan He looked better in EFC imo , even tho I think he can do big things or do well in UFC timing and in prime is everything in this game with the exception of a very few

Nicely done!

Hulle weet nie wat ons weet nie.

Awesome vid, thanks guys!

It's so funny at the beginning of the fights, dricus always walks slowly forward and the other guy just rocket sprints towards him and Dricus is like oh fuck

Thx for this vid !

we gotta new champ at middleweight and his name is dricus du plessis🫢

9:04 That guy is Leon Edwards teammate as well

14:30 lmao dude even wanted to protest

Dricus Dangerous Du Plessis

This guy will 100% do 5 rounds

I have to say it cause I love DDP but I just don't think his drown game is gonna stand up against someone like Sean. It'll be a banger but I don't see this staying on the ground one bit

Bu gur dea fla blanksanzki jes flew bi guy

The king of South Africa guy is on Leon Edwards team. He even talks like Leon lol

The wild thing is, you lot will see a title like this and think it's not problematic af. 🚯◻️
