It was an extremely long night for Dricus du Plessis at UFC 319 in Chicago. The former UFC middleweight champion lost his title to Khamzat Chimaev via a smothering so complete that the judges all awarded the fight to “Borz” with 50-44 scores.

Dricus Du Plessis says he has used a mental coach for the past eight years and that it’ll pay off when he fights Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 319. Chimaev is expected to take Du Plessis down early, and the reigning middleweight champion shrugged it off.
