“The only difference is if he’s prepared to go to that place with me, that will be the only difference,” Usman told TSN.
The first of those successful defences was a fifth-round, TKO victory over Colby Covington, the man that he will face in a rematch in the main event on Saturday at Madison Square Garden.īoth men have changed camps since the first time they clashed, but Usman does not expect the outcome of the fight to be any different than when they met in Las Vegas at UFC 245, unless his opponent can rise to the challenge. The men’s pound-for-pound ranking in the UFC is a who’s who of the sport, filled with champions, interim champions and some of the most feared and exciting fighters in all of mixed martial arts.Īt the top of that list stands one man, undisputed welterweight champion Kamaru Usman, who will put the belt on the line for the fifth time, looking for his 19th consecutive win overall, at UFC 268.
