Dricus du Plessis’s recent unanimous decision win over Kamaru Usman at UFC Oklahoma City in July has repositioned the former middleweight champion as a frontrunner for a title shot, yet the division’s crowded landscape keeps his next opponent uncertain. Current champion Sean Strickland holds two prior losses to du Plessis, while Khamzat Chimaev—after dropping the belt to Strickland—has publicly named du Plessis among his preferred opponents alongside Nassourdine Imavov and Caio Borralho. Imavov’s strong recent form and other ranked middleweights like Gregory Rodrigues, who called out du Plessis after his latest victory, add further contenders. With no official booking and multiple high-profile matchups viable as title eliminators or high-stakes non-title fights, trader consensus reflects this open field through tightly clustered probabilities.
