Du Plessis challenges Borralho to spar after callout, Usman fight rumored

Caio Borralho traveled to South Africa to challenge Dricus Du Plessis, prompting the champion to invite him to spar at his gym. Du Plessis told Borralho he could post videos of the sparring sessions if he wanted. When Borralho suggested Du Plessis sign a contract, the champion questioned why Borralho's name would even be in negotiations and challenged him to come to the gym since it was only 30 minutes away. Meanwhile, several insiders have reported that a fight between Du Plessis and Kamaru Usman is being developed. The post also notes that Shavkat Rakhmonov frightened his fans with a rehabilitation video showing him far from fighting condition after more than a year and a half out of action.
