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.

“It was an amazing experience meeting my fans in Boksburg,” he said.
