Everybody loves a rematch.
Dricus Du Plessis took the middleweight belt from Sean Strickland in January and successfully defended it against Israel Adesanya on Saturday at UCF 305. Following the successful defense, Strickland made his desire known for a second shot at Du Plessis with a post on X.
UFC president Dana White previously said that the winner of Du Plessis-Adesanya would face Strickland in their next fight. However, it is worth noting that Alex Pereira suggested he will drop back down to Middleweight and could be a contender as well.
