With Khamzat Chimaev apparently still gearing up for a return at UFC 317 — despite a reported injury to champion, Dricus du Plessis, former Octagon star, Chael Sonnen claims the Chechen may struggle to find an opponent for the July card.
Chimaev, who was widely targeted to feature on the International Fight Week lineup, was tied heavily with a title fight against the incumbent, du Plessis in recent months.
However, over the course of the weekend, reports emerged detailing how Pretoria native, du Plessis is dealing with an unspecified injury — which is likely to prevent him fighting the incoming title challenger at UFC 317.
