“If I'm speaking about simply the stand exchanges, I'm not combating a kickboxing battle,” du Plessis informed Submission Radio. “I'm combating an MMA battle, and a kickboxing battle, you require to be able to land combinations. You require to land enormous punches the entire time. Get a guy rocked, you get an eight-count– you have all those variables. Where in MMA, I do not care who you are: If I capture you tidy with those little gloves, you're going to decrease, and I am going to capture you ultimately.
“Now, I stated it with Izzy. He stated I'm too sluggish. I would not have the ability to capture him. Well, yeah. Like, I made a post the other day stating possibly it's not quite, however damn, it's reliable since I will capture you ultimately, and after that it's an entire various story due to the fact that I'm not participating in a kickboxing battle. I'm punching, and I'm kicking, however it's not a kickboxing battle. It's an MMA battle, and when I put those together, it's a various battle.”
“I truthfully think that with a guy like Alex Pereira, he has power,” du Plessis stated. “I have a great deal of power, too. Yes, he has crisp striking. His striking is amazing. That's why he has the kickboxing resume he has. We saw with the Khalil Rountree battle– we saw a lot of things. Khalil had success in those very first 2 rounds. He truly did.”
