du Plessis backs himself in opposition to Pereira

“If I’m speaking about simply the arise exchanges, I’m not combating a kickboxing combat,” du Plessis informed Submission Radio. “I’m combating an MMA combat, and a kickboxing combat, you want to have the ability to land combos. It’s good to land large punches the entire time. Get a man rocked, you get an eight-count – you’ve got all these variables. The place in MMA, I don’t care who you might be: If I catch you clear with these small gloves, you’re going to go down, and I’m going to catch you ultimately.

Like, I made a submit yesterday saying perhaps it’s not fairly, however rattling, it’s efficient as a result of I’ll catch you ultimately, after which it’s an entire totally different story as a result of I’m not participating in a kickboxing combat. I’m punching, and I’m kicking, however it’s not a kickboxing combat. It’s an MMA combat, and after I put these collectively, it’s a unique combat.”

“I truthfully consider that with a man like Alex Pereira, he has energy,” du Plessis stated. “I’ve quite a lot of energy, too. Sure, he has crisp hanging. His hanging is unbelievable. That’s why he has the kickboxing resume he has. However we noticed with the Khalil Rountree combat – we noticed quite a lot of issues. Khalil had success in these first two rounds. He actually did.”
