However, Kamaru Usman proved his worth as one of the most active and dominant UFC fighters at the moment. He not only defeated Jorge Masvidal in just two rounds, but did so with a nerve-wrecking punch. Many were assuming that the champion will use his wrestling to win the fight, but to their surprise, he just beat Masvidal at his own game.

During a conversation with CouRage and Zlaner, Doc had also opened up on stepping inside the boxing ring. True to his nature, he made fun of Nickmercs, TimTheTatman, and Cloakzy when asked about fighting them.
