Sorry, GSP: Kamaru Usman is the greatest welterweight of all time

Rivalries are what make sports so great, and while there can never really be a true rivalry between Kamaru Usman and Georges St-Pierre, their case is one for a lot of talk over a cold one.

St-Pierre is the greatest welterweight of all time, or at least that’s what we heard over and over for years. It was like his name was actually George St-Pierre Greatest Welterweight of All Time, it was used so often.

Has the time come, though, to permanently retire that phrase?

Perhaps, because Kamaru Usman has a damn good argument to make for himself in that regard.
