Surging middleweight contender, Caio Borralho has suggested an interim title fight with the unbeaten, Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 317 in June, amid reports this weekend that the current undisputed champion, Dricus du Plessis is injured and unable to compete on the International Fight Week card.
Overnight, reports emerged detailing how South African star, du Plessis was dealing with an unspecified injury ahead of a planned return at UFC 317, with rumors of a title defense against the undefeated Chechen finisher, Chimaev, rife in recent weeks.
And reacting to news of du Plessis’ potential exclusion from the end of June card, Chimaev described the latest development as “bullsh*t” — hitting out at his Pretoria rival.
