Kamaru Usman provided an upset earlier this month when he dethroned the former champion Tyron Woodley in their welterweight scrap at UFC 235.
The most surprising takeaway of the fight was the manner that Usman dominated his opponent over five rounds with relentless pressure eventually grinding out a one-sided unanimous decision victory. Woodley has claimed he was not himself during the fight and has struggled to come to terms with why he performed the way he did.
This weekend in London, another pair of potential 170-pound contenders clash when Darren Till faces off against Jorge Masvidal in the main event of UFC Fight Night 147, also known as UFC on ESPN+ 5.
