Kamaru Usman continued his run of excellence in the welterweight division at UFC 251.

“The Nigerian Nightmare” utilized a grinding approach to wear down Jorge Masvidal, earning a unanimous verdict in Saturday’s main event at Yas Island in Abu Dhabi. While Usman defended his 170-pound belt for a second time, Masvidal faded down the stretch after accepting the bout on six days’ notice.
