What... Not "I'll beat that Gorilla in Manila" :)
 
Pretty sure DDP's name is Dutch and the Dutch aren't considered french. Just root for the white guy.

No, it is French. His ancestry is French. Only Sean Strickland kept referring to him as 'Dutchman' when he did not even understand Dricus' ancestry is French and that not every white person in South Africa is a Dutch descendant.

French and Netherlands. Guess what people from the Netherlands are called? Dutch.

Dricus' ancestors are French immigrants who moved from France to South Africa as farmers. Dricus is French-South African. What am I missing here?
 
This is a hard fight to call
Cgimaec is very dangerous with his submissions from the first 5 secs of the fight.

I hope Dricus wins I really do but this is a very risky fight for him.

I see that Khamzat is the betting favorite .

Yeah, Khamzat is a pretty sizable favorite. Dricus is a pretty big underdog.

You are right the name is french. A quick search for his ancestry showed French and Netherlands.
  • Afrikaner Heritage:
    Dricus Du Plessis is of Afrikaner descent, with his family originating from France and the Netherlands.
Either way who cares. He is a douche but so it Khamzat. Just trying to help Randy figure out who to root for. He seems to have trouble deciding.

That's really nice of you to help Randy Fo Fanders like that.

Drives gs to urvube 1st round and keep this fight on the feet.

Chimaev shoots VERY fast and he'll choke you or armbar you super quick. He's done this again and again.
- Dricus must know this so I hope he has trained with some very fast Dagestani wrestlers/grapples in preparation.

Longer the fight goes on.....the more I think it favors Dricus.

Really like du Plessis and I cannot stand Chimaev so.....yeah..

Yeah, apparently he trained a lot with Dagestani style wrestling in this camp. His training has been a well guarded secret.
 
So the chances of this fight went up from 25% to 38%
 
A white African with a French name versus a Chechen Swedish Muslim representing UAE.

my racism and bias doesn’t know which way to lean in this fight. I’m so confused….
Do you even know of the Dutch south Afrikaans?
