Dana White had high praise for Kamaru Usman following his second-round knockout of Jorge Masvidal at UFC 261. At the post-fight news conference Saturday, the UFC president simplified things. Whether you boo him or cheer him, Usman is on his way to becoming the greatest of all time.
Dana White said, “I think we can all agree. No matter how you feel, the guy is getting booed in there tonight, but he’s one of the best ever. He’s on his way to probably be the greatest of all time. I mean, the guy is an absolute stud. He looks better every time he comes out.”
Shortly after Kamaru Usman’s brutal win over Jorge Masvidal at UFC 261. His arch-rival Colby Covington took to Twitter to express his honest opinion on the fight. The King of Chaos wrote that Usman looked like “trash” during his fight. Colby Covington ended his statement by taking another dig at Masvidal, claiming that Gamebred is a “backstabbing bum.”
Marty looked like trash, but it’s not like you have to be any good to beat @GamebredFighter. What’s that now 20 losses? Backstabbing bum. #ufc261
