Chael BREAKS Usman vs Du Plessis News + Rico vs. Usyk Controversy

from You're Welcome! With Chael Sonnen · host Chael Sonnen

Chael Sonnen drops breaking news on a massive UFC fight as Kamaru Usman is reportedly set to move up and face Dricus du Plessis in one of the most important fights at middleweight. But what does it actually mean? Is this a true No. 1 contender fight? Does Sean Strickland get bypassed? And where does Khamzat Chimaev fit into the chaos now? Chael also dives into the controversial Rico Verhoeven vs Oleksandr Usyk crossover boxing match, the referee scandal, accusations of corruption, and why boxing keeps damaging its own credibility. Plus, why crossover fights rarely succeed financially, and how Francis Ngannou, Tyson Fury, Floyd Mayweather, and Conor McGregor changed the way combat sports are viewed forever.
