Khamzat Chimaev challenges Dricus du Plessis for the middleweight title at UFC 319 on August 16th. Chimaev, undefeated in the UFC, faces a challenge, with former opponent Gerald Meerschaert predicting a Du Plessis victory. Meerschaert, who Chimaev defeated in 17 seconds, believes Du Plessis' size and style will prove problematic for Chimaev. Meerschaert himself fights on the UFC 319 undercard, aiming to avoid his first three-fight losing streak.
