Dricus Du Plessis reacted strongly to the judges' decision in the Khamzat Chimaev vs. Sean Strickland fight at UFC 328. Before the main event began, Du Plessis declared in a UFC social media video that Strickland would win by unanimous decision. The prediction proved partially correct as Strickland won, though by split decision rather than unanimous. Du Plessis appeared to be the happiest person in the arena following the verdict. His prescient prediction has generated attention from fans suggesting he "knew something."
