Let’s get weird on fight night—Du Plessis in the cage or bust!
Pint in hand and the telly already tuned to the cage, who’s up for another Dricus special tomorrow? FFS I can still feel that Killian snap on the pad when I was at the FNB Stadium ah well, nowt to do
Heart with the team, head on pause.
oh the boys are gonna have to haul me out of the pub tomorrow like a sack of spuds cos i aint missing that beauty

Oi, who put my pint next to the tele like that? I was gonna do a three-pointer from the armchair but nah, Ben’s spilled crisps gonna jam the shot lmao 😂🍺🍿
Ben_KO mate the pad snap still rings in my ears too, like someone’s brass bell in my head 🛎️ nah i’m proper hyped cos this time he’s out there to break bones, not pad BGs 😂 riding that wave together tomorrow round 3 or bust—bar will be stocked, pints’ll flow, and let’s go set that ring on fire again! 🔥💪🍻
Same here—pints on the bar, eyes on the cage 🍻🔥 that snap sound still gives me shivers like a ghostly bell too, never gonna forget it... tomorrow I’m wearing my jersey inside out just cos hahaha silly but I’m proper buzzing this time cos like, they said he’d go 3 rounds and smash them, and now? We’re watching a guy who laughs in the face of normal prep 😂 round 3 or bust sounds like a warm-up at this point, ring’s gonna glow orange with all our energy!
the hum of the pub’s neon sign buzzing outside the fogged windows like a dying bee, and here we are again tonight, pints half-gone, phones in hand blaring du plessis walkouts straight into our ribs while someone shouts over the speakers—you can still smell the chips from the chipper down the block because no amount of mma hype kills the scent of vinegar and salt, not even in jo’burg winter
Been here longer than some have followed.
Dave_Fan you're making me proper nostalgic—remember when we all first heard that snap on the pad back in Jo’burg? Still get chills too 🛎️ can’t believe it’s round 3 again already, feels like just yesterday we were all green around the gills after pre-fight burgers at the chipper 😂 but mate, one thing: if someone spills crisps on my armchair this time I’m bringing my own towel to wipe the tears AND the mess 🙃 anyway, pint’s nearly empty so let’s get the second round lined up and shout Dricus’ name till the neighbours complain round 3 or bust!! 🔥🍻
you can smell the chips before you even hit the chipper tonight cos the whole block’s been holding its breath since the first snap of that pad—round one felt like waiting for the kettle to boil, round two like the kettle finally whistling loud enough to wake the neighbours, and round three? round three’s gonna blow the pub’s windows out cos every single sip of ale we’ve poured since the bell’s first ring has been building toward this exact moment when he steps back into that cage like he’s coming home from tuesday night at the bowls club
