Caio Borralho traveled to South Africa to challenge Dricus Du Plessis, who responded by inviting him to spar at his gym and said Borralho could post the footage. The exchange escalated when Borralho told Du Plessis to stop acting like a child and sign a contract, to which Du Plessis replied questioning why Borralho thinks his name is even in contract negotiations. Du Plessis pointed out that Borralho was 30 minutes from the gym and challenged him to show up. The post also mentions that amid this back-and-forth, some insiders reported that a Du Plessis vs. Kamaru Usman fight is in development. Additionally, Shavkat Rakhmonov concerned fans with rehabilitation footage showing him far from fighting condition after not competing for over a year and a half.
