Middleweight contender Caio Borralho flew to South Africa to find champion Dricus Du Plessis, claiming the champion has not been responding to his callouts. Du Plessis immediately responded on social media, inviting Borralho to his gym for a sparring session on Friday at 9 AM, offering to film it if desired. Du Plessis questioned whether Borralho truly believed he was being considered for a title shot and challenged him to prove he was a real man by showing up. Borralho countered by telling Du Plessis to stop acting like a child and simply sign a contract for a fight.
