Kamaru Usman and Colby Covington put on an absolute classic in Las Vegas tonight, and they didn’t just have their fans in awe.
The two welterweights had their fellow UFC fighters captivated in every round leading up to the moment where Usman finished Covington in the fifth and final round.
Colby Covington is a tough gamed opponent . No need to be such a douche . Talking about dead people . Get your shit together young man ! Great fight #UFC245
What a performance by @USMAN84kg !! Stayed composed and stuck to the game plan! Congrats my friend! @ColbyCovMMA is one tough dude!!!! Great night of fights #ufc245
Terrible stoppage!! #UFC245 That sucks! Colby was going to lose that 5th RD bad, and lose the fight, BUT that stoppage was not right. He was still “intelligently defending” himself, as per the rule book.
