Israel Adesanya [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/israel-adesanya/] is a flamboyant man. He wears nail paint, watches anime, and ‘sexually harasses’ other fighters. Which is why Sean Strickland [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sean-strickland/] dislikes him intently, and lets him know that in a press conference last year. ‘Izzy’ seems unbothered by this, as his response to Strickland’s tirade indicates. “And that’s facts,” Izzy said as Strickland accused the middleweight champion of having an interest in hentai. All of this, of course, has led to some serious bad blood between the two. And they will have a chance to settle their grudge at UFC 293 in Australia this Sunday. Adesanya was originally slated to fight Dricus Du Plessis [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/dricus-du-plessis/], but the South African pulled out in order to recover from a shoulder injury. However, after Du Plessis pulled out, Adesanya pushed the UFC for #5 ranked middleweight Sean Strickland. Their ongoing feud is one of the main reasons Adesanya wanted Strickland. And when he came to know that Du Plessis will not be attending UFC 293, he was disappointed and called out the Praetorian for missing a huge opportunity. ISRAEL ADESANYA CALLS DDP ‘IDIOT’ FOR MISSING OUT ON A In an interview with ‘TheMacLife’ on YouTube, Israel Adesanya was asked if he thought that ‘Stillknocks’ had missed out on a lucrative PR opportunity and having a confrontation at the event, thus building hype for their potential fight. Adesanya agreed and called Du Plessis an “idiot”. He even jested that the South African could have called him ni*** to market the fight, which the interviewer pointed out Strickland might do. “He didn’t? I just assumed he did. Idiot. He could have jumped in there and called me a ni***, too” Stylebender said. THE BEEF BETWEEN ISRAEL ADESANYA AND DRICUS DU PLESSIS The beef between Israel Adesanya and Dricus Du Plessis goes back to when the latter made comments Izzy viewed as questioning his African heritage. Things came to a head at UFC 290, where the two had a hostile face-off laden with expletives after DDP’s victory over former middleweight champion Robert Whittaker [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/robert-whittaker/]. Gesture for Coach Kavanagh Despite Being on a Date With Fiancé Dee Devlin [https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-mma-news-thats-absolute-class-conor-mcgregor-impresses-fans-with-his-gesture-for-coach-kavanagh-despite-being-on-a-date-with-fiance-dee-devlin/] Their confrontation managed to generate a lot of headlines and created intense hype for a matchup between the two. And another intense face-off between the two could have reignited fans’ excitement for a potential fight between the two. No wonder Adesanya is not happy. Who do you think will win in the fight between Adesanya and Strickland at UFC 293? Let us know in the comments section below.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Dricus Du Plessis: Net Worth 2024, Record, Girlfriend, and More</b></h2>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Who is Dricus Du Plessis? </strong></h2>
<strong>Dricus du Plessis</strong> is a surging contender who is rising in ranks since making his promotional debut against <strong>Markus Perez</strong> in 2020. The UFC star has put the middleweight division on alert with his knack for finishes and his well-rounded combat skills. His lethal punches and sudden ascendance even caught the attention of the former champion, <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/israel-adesanya/" target="_self" rel="noopener"><strong>Israel Adesanya</strong></a>. He is enjoying his time as the current UFC Middleweight Champion and the first South African to win a UFC championship.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Dricus Du Plessis' Early Life </strong></h2>
The Team CIT MMA gym representative got involved with combat sports at the age of 5 when he picked up judo and then wrestling. He eventually shifted to kickboxing at 14 and then became a WAKO World Champion in K-1.

'Stillknocks' has mentioned in the past that his aim had always been to perfect the combination of stand-up and ground game. He wants to dominate these styles individually. He always had the dream of becoming a professional MMA fighter. Besides, the scarce earning opportunities in kickboxing also pushed him to switch to MMA.

Du Plessis attended the University of Pretoria, where he studied agricultural economics as he fought under the banner of the EFC. But he dropped out during the final year to realize and fully commit to his dream of pursuing a career in MMA.

[caption id="attachment_2506314" align="aligncenter" width="950"]<img class="wp-image-2506314 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Untitled-92-1-e1723967827932.jpg" alt="Dricus du Plessis" width="950" height="660" /> Image Credits: Imago[/caption]

Notably, the former kickboxer made his professional debut at 19 for EFC and went 4-0 before meeting UFC veteran <strong>Garreth McLellan </strong>for the middleweight championship. But, he suffered his first MMA loss and then later on moved to welterweight. Following this, he clinched the welterweight title against <strong>Martin van Staden</strong> at EFC Africa 50. Subsequently, he also won the middleweight title the next year.

His tremendous success also followed in KSW as he sat at the top of the welterweight division. Du Plessis has left the imprints of a champion wherever he fought, and the UFC has been no exception to that.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Dricus Du Plessis' Girlfriend</strong></h2>
We now know that <strong>Vasti Spiller</strong> is his current partner, according to the UFC Embedded series. As per Spiller's 46k-follower Instagram account, she works as a boxing coach at CIT Boxing Studio in South Africa. In addition, she has a photographic company called Baruch Photographic. She represents the B Loved Foundation, a nonprofit that helps individuals in need.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Dricus Du Plessis' Net Worth 2024</strong></h2>
As of 2024, the 30-year-old's net worth is reported to be between $1 million-$5 million, according to multiple sources. People Ai listed his net worth as $2.25 million. The MMA fighter, who prefers to keep his details concealed, hasn't revealed his exact estimates to the public. The primary sources of his revenue include paychecks collected from fighting inside Octagon, bonuses, and endorsement deals.

The fighter is said to be withdrawing an amount of $300,000 per fight in the form of a base salary. As per MMA Salaries, he took home $300,000 for just showing up in his last clash against Sean Strickland while also earning some extra amount in the form of bonuses for winning the clash.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Dricus Du Plessis' Career Timeline</strong></h2>
The Hatfield native holds an impressive record of 7-0 in the UFC, and five victories came via stoppage. He has eased past the likes of <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/darren-till/" target="_self" rel="noopener"><strong>Darren Till</strong></a> at UFC 282 and <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/derek-brunson/" target="_self" rel="noopener"><strong>Derek Brunson</strong></a> at UFC 285. Moreover, he has also defeated former champ <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/robert-whittaker/"><strong>Robert Whittaker</strong></a> at UFC 290. He dominated the fight against <strong>Brad Tavares at UFC 276</strong>, one of his only fights that went the distance.

Notably, one of the highlights of Dricus du Plessis' career came in his most recent fight at UFC 297 as he defeated Sean Strickland via split decision to become the current UFC Middleweight Champion and the first South African to win a UFC championship. On the heels of those spectacular wins, the 21-2 record holder has found himself on the way to becoming a legend in the division.

[caption id="attachment_2590055" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-2590055 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Dana-White-Dricus-Du-Plessis-1.jpg" alt="Dana White, Dricus Du Plessis" width="1920" height="1080" /> Credits: Imago[/caption]

His last defeat dates back to 2018, when he dropped the fight against <strong>Roberto Soldic</strong> and, as a result, also lost his KSW welterweight title. But he never let this defeat trouble him, and he then inculcated the lessons in his game. His 9-fight win streak bears testament to his caliber as a fighter and a quick learner.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Dricus Du Plessis' Career and Record</strong></h2>
Dricus Du Plessis holds a record of 21-2-0 in pro-MMA. The champion has secured nine wins via KO/TKO, ten via submission, and the remaining two via decision. Speaking of the UFC, he has a total of seven victories to his name and is yet to taste defeat in the promotion.

<p style="text-align: left">Strickland is a formidable and well-rounded fighter known for his aggressive and relentless style. He combines exceptional striking skills with solid grappling proficiency, making him a great stand-up fighter and an elite submission grappler. Strickland utilizes his Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu techniques to tire out his opponents and aims for a knockout. He is determined to finish fights early but is also prepared to go the distance if necessary.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Sean Strickland’s Career Timeline</strong></h2>
'Tarzan' started his professional MMA career in 2008 with a win over <strong>Tyler Pottett</strong>. He went on to achieve an undefeated record of 9-0 in the King of the Cage promotion. Strickland won the King of the Cage Middleweight Championship in 2012 and defended it three times before signing with the UFC.

In his UFC debut in 2014, Strickland submitted <strong>Bubba McDaniel</strong> with a rear-naked choke. He continued his success with victories over <strong>Luke Barnatt</strong> and <strong>Igor Arajo</strong>. Strickland suffered a loss to <strong>Santiago Ponzinibbio,</strong> but bounced back with wins against <strong>Alex Garcia</strong> and <strong>Tom Breese</strong>.

After a knee injury forced him to withdraw from a bout, Strickland faced tough competition in <strong>Kamaru Usman</strong> but lost via unanimous decision. He rebounded by defeating Court McGee, but suffered a knockout loss to <strong>Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos</strong>. Following a two-year layoff due to a motorcycle accident, Strickland returned to the octagon and earned wins over <strong>Jack Marshman</strong> and<strong> Brendan Allen</strong>. He continued his winning streak by defeating <strong>Krzysztof Jotko</strong> and <strong>Uriah Hall</strong>.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1885066" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/imago1022245918h.jpg" alt="" />

Although his scheduled fight with <strong>Luke Rockhold</strong> was canceled, Strickland secured a split decision win over <strong>Jack Hermansson</strong>. In his most recent fight, he faced <strong>Jared Cannonier</strong> and suffered a submission loss. However, changing the wave to his favor, Strickland stepped up to face <strong>Nassourdine Imavov</strong> at UFC Fight Night: Strickland vs. Imavov and emerged victorious, securing a win via unanimous decision in the fight.

Next, Strickland faced <strong>Abusupiyan Magomedov</strong> at UFC on ESPN 48 on July 1, 2023. After defeating his opponent, 'Tarzan' earned a title shot! He faced former champ Israel Adesanya at UFC 293, and came out victorious via a unanimous decision.

Then in UFC 297, Strickland lost his first-ever title defense against Dricus du Plessis. And now he is set to face Paulo Costa for UFC 302 to get back in the title run again!
