South Africa Vlog! Meeting Dricus Du Plessis? Boxing With Cameron Saaiman? Talking With The UFC?

[@the-mma-guru]

Had a lot of problems with this video being uploaded over the past couple of days, hope you guys enjoy it. I'll be back to regular content now and streams, I'll post the full interview with Dricus Du Plessis closer to his fight, it was very hard to get recorded content whilst out there but I tried for the vlog I guess. Also I need better fitting clothes I ain't 300lbs anymore. Shoutout to everyone at team CIT for welcoming me. Especially @cameronsaaiman
