UFC world champion and history-maker Dricus ‘Stillknocks’ du Plessis was at Boksburg’s Hennie’s for a meet and greet on May 11.
Fans lined up for photos and autographs with Stillknocks, who became the first South African UFC middleweight champion following a victory over Sean Strickland in a Toronto showdown in January.
Even when the official meet and greet was over, the champion UFC fighter stuck around and continued interacting with his fans.
Stillknocks, also recently revealed as a contestant on the second season of The Masked Singer South Africa, was patient with his many fans and came across as humble, charismatic and with a good sense of humour.
“It was an amazing experience meeting my fans in Boksburg,” he said.
