Caio Borralho challenges Dricus Du Plessis in South Africa, sparring offer exchanged

Middleweight contender Caio Borralho traveled to South Africa to call out UFC champion Dricus Du Plessis for a title fight. Du Plessis responded by inviting Borralho to spar at his gym and post the footage publicly. When Borralho dismissed this as childish behavior and urged Du Plessis to sign a fight contract, the champion questioned why Borralho believes he's being considered for a title shot at all. Du Plessis challenged Borralho to visit his gym, which was reportedly only 30 minutes away. Meanwhile, multiple insiders have reported that a bout between Du Plessis and Kamaru Usman is currently in development, suggesting Borralho may not be next in line for a title opportunity.
