He was murking people.\u201d<\/p>\n He also praised Tsarukyan for being a \u2018beast\u2019 in the gym, but made a point to talk about the incredible training of the Chechen.<\/p>\n After experiencing the best the sport has to offer, he was asked whether any fighter he had faced reminded him of Chimaev<\/a>, and he provided an interesting response.<\/p>\n \u201cNo, he does not. No, he\u2019s a different animal,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n \u201cBut his work ethic reminds me of, Michael Bisping, though. Michael Bisping was always an animal in the gym. That\u2019s why I love training with that kid.\u201d<\/p>\n Dricus Du Plessis provides a cold response to a potential Reinier de Ridder fight<\/p>\n He will hope to bring the high standards set in training to his championship fight with Du Plessis, who has a list of contenders ready and waiting if he can retain his coveted belt.<\/p>\n
