Summary

Dricus du Plessis made sure there was absolutely no controversy this time around as he dominated Sean Strickland in their rematch for the middleweight championship in the main event of Saturday's UFC 312 event in Sydney, Australia. Now, all eyes are on the eventual championship fight between du Plessis and the undefeated Khamzat Chimaev. Following the UFC's pay-per-view event, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to the card, du Plessis' lopsided win over the very game Strickland, discuss how big a du Plessis vs. Chimaev fight can be, and where Strickland goes from his second loss to du Plessis. Additionally, they discuss Zhang Weili's one-sided decision victory over Tatiana Suarez, if Zhang had her final strawweight fight in lieu of a move up to flyweight to challenge Valentina Shevchenko for the 125-pound belt, Manon Fiorot potentially being leapfrogged, other notable moments from the card, and much more.
