Current middleweight champion Dricus Du Plessis is gearing up to defend his title against Sean Strickland in a highly anticipated rematch at UFC 312 in Sydney this Sunday. The fighters last met over a year ago, with Du Plessis securing a split decision victory. However, Du Plessis is determined to leave no doubt this time around and aims to avoid another close call that could go either way.
On the same fight card, Zhang Weili, the reigning strawweight champion from China, will face off against Tatiana Suarez, the top-ranked challenger hailing from Rancho Cucamonga, California. Weili, with an impressive record of 25-3, has successfully defended her title in her last three fights, showcasing her skills with two unanimous decision wins and a second-round submission victory.
