The team of UFC middleweight champion Dricus Du Plessis has confirmed that a fight with Kamaru Usman is in the works. The confirmation came from CIT Performance Institute, the gym where Du Plessis trains, which posted the information on their social media channels. This would mark a significant matchup between the current middleweight champion and the former welterweight king, who has been campaigning for a title shot at 185 pounds. No official date or event has been announced by the UFC yet. The post suggests fans are awaiting formal confirmation from the promotion.
