The biggest of those fights and the one that’s been given the main event spot will include welterweight champion Kamaru Usman against Colby Covington. This is a bout that’s needed to happen for fights fans for a long time. We need answers.
Colby Covington (15-1) has been on a tear with his relentless volume and pressure he bombards his opponents with. Names like Damian Maia, Rafael Dos Anjos and Robbie Lawler have had no answer for the the chaos that Covington brings to the octagon. Although he was stripped from his title. You better believe Covington still regards himself as the champion.
Kamaru Usman (15-1) has the exact same record as Colby coming into this fight. He’s riding a 14 fight win streak and has looked completely dominant outclassing former champion Tyron Woodley back in March. Names such as Maia and Dos Anjos are also on his list.
These two welterweights have a lot more in common than they think.
The UFC 245 Main Card Includes:
- Max Holloway (21-4) v Alexander Volkanovski (20-1)
- Amanda Nunes (18-4) v Germaine De Randamie (9-3)
- Marlon Moraes (22-6-1) v José Aldo (28-5)
