Dricus du Plessis and Sean Strickland Discuss Alex Pereira Fight
The current UFC Light-Heavyweight Champion, Alex Pereira, was front row at the UFC 297 press conference. The main event will see a familiar foe and now friend of Pereira, Sean Strickland, take on the #2 ranked Middleweight contender Dricus du Plessis. When du Plessis asked about facing Pereira next, he responded.
> 100%, but after this. I have a whole division to take care of. Whether it's him or somebody else, I don't care; after this division, that's the one I'm after. - Dricus du Plessis
Strickland chimed in as well, appeasing the Canadian fans by shooting a jab at du Plessis.
> Alex! After I put him away, you can put him away next. Don't worry, Dricus, we got you! - Sean Strickland
