👀 Dricus du Plessis says Khamzat Chimaev should take the loss like a man and stop making weight cut excuses: “Even if you did have a bad weight cut, it’s fine, it happens to all of us. But you don’t go, ‘Oh I lost the fight because of that…’ If you wanna change weight divisions, do it. Blaming a weight cut is like saying ‘I lost the fight cause I wasn’t fit.’ It’s on you, be more disciplined. When you get into the Octagon, there is no excuse. If you went in there with a big injury, you made the decision to fight. Be a man, take a loss like a man, don’t make any excuses. There are no excuses.” (via @FForecastShow)
