What mattered most at UFC 251 on “Fight Island” in Abu Dhabi? Here are a few post-fight musings … * * * * 1. Kamaru Usman displays his dominance It’s not the most exciting style to watch, but Kamaru Usman continues to prove time and time again that he has one of most effective styles of anyone on the UFC roster. Jorge Masvidal got to experience that first hand in his unanimous decision loss to Usman in their welterweight title bout. No matter what the opponent’s approach is or how they try to fight him, Usman finds a way to sap the life of his foes with a rare mix of clinch and grappling pressure. “The Nigerian Nightmare” is now 12-0 in the UFC, and the only two fighters in history to get off to that same start in the promotion are Khabib Nurmagomedov and Anderson Silva.
