In a stunning twist that has electrified the MMA world, Dricus Du Plessis has officially shut down all rumors suggesting he was injured and unfit to fight. After days of swirling speculation and doubt, Du Plessis came out swinging — both with his words and with a chilling warning for Khamzat Chimaev: “You better be ready!”

Fans had been nervously speculating whether Du Plessis would pull out of his highly anticipated bout against Chimaev after reports of a potential injury during training surfaced. But in a fiery social media post, the South African powerhouse dismissed the rumors as “pure lies” and made it crystal clear that he’s stronger, sharper, and more dangerous than ever.

“Don’t believe everything you hear,” Du Plessis said. “I’m coming for war — and Khamzat better understand this: I’m not stepping back, I’m stepping through!”

The message sent shockwaves through the fight community, especially considering Chimaev’s recent dominant performance over Robert Whittaker. Many believed Chimaev would have the upper hand if Du Plessis were battling injuries — but now, it’s clear the champ is locked in, hungry, and ready for an all-out war.

Insiders are calling this fight “the battle for the future of the middleweight division”, and with both fighters promising absolute carnage, UFC fans are in for a night they’ll never forget.
