MMA analyst Din Thomas has given his thoughts on the possibility of Islam Makhachev vs Kamaru Usman as a UFC title fight.
As we know, Islam Makhachev is the reigning UFC welterweight champion. However, there are plenty of question marks surrounding his next opponent, with some suggesting that it will be Kamaru Usman, the former champ. Usman recently defeated Joaquin Buckley to snap his three-fight losing streak at the hands of Leon Edwards and Khamzat Chimaev.
As you can imagine, a lot of people aren’t best pleased with the idea of Usman taking on Islam Makhachev, especially because there are so many other big names at 170 pounds who are riding a nice wave of momentum right now.
