Dricus du Plessis claims fight against Israel Adesanya at UFC 300 would be "amazing"

Following his win over Sean Strickland, Dricus du Plessis is open to making a quick turnaround to take on Israel Adesanya at UFC 300, provided the damage he sustained against Sean Strickland isn't too severe.

Speaking about a potential grudge match against 'The Last Stylebender' at the milestone pay-per-view slated for April, du Plessis said at the post-fight presser:

"A little bit of damage?! Do you remember how handsome I was before this fight? I look like a cauliflower now. I'm pretty banged up right now. Listen, I'm up for another round if they want to go. I don't want to put a timeline on [the fight] but UFC 300 sounds amazing."
