Since becoming a UFC champion, Kamaru Usman has become a more well-rounded fighter. Thanks to the tutelage of the great Trevor Wittman, “The Nigerian Nightmare” has so far shown improvements on his stand-up game, and his three recent knockout and TKO wins are strong enough testaments to it.
But according to his former challenger Jorge Masvidal, Usman’s is “nothing special on the feet.”
“I know he’s beatable. There’s not a man alive that isn’t beatable. Taking the second round (of the rematch at UFC 261) out of it, the first round after I got up, I started landing some big shots on him,” Masvidal said in his recent appearance on Logan Paul’s Impaulsive podcast.
