Robert Whittaker: Dricus Du Plessis Not a Good Fight for Alex Pereira
Briefly

Honestly, I don't think that's a good fight for [Pereira]. But also, when you move up to light heavyweight, moving back down is tricky. And it's not like you move up for one fight, he's stayed up there. He's fighting up there for a while now. So it would take a lot out of him to get down and Dricus is so strong there.
Well, Alex gets hit and Dricus likes getting hit. So it's hard to see someone with the amount of power to stop Dricus from walking forward into you. And Dricus hits hard, we saw that in the fight against Adesanya. Adesanya's got a really good chin and Dricus was still hurting him enough to make him uncomfortable.
