This is proof that champions have an aura. Once it’s taken away, they are exposed and won’t be the same. Both the opponents and the fighter himself can see and feel it.

Not really, UFC is notorious for giving fighters the edge, they put a bunch of strikers against wrestlers or stronger guys we know are weaker! Usman had a couple decent victories but realistically he fought a good amount of weak fighters who he could beat from wrestling…….

What most fans aren't taking into account are usmans knees. If that dude had good knees he would be so much better. The fact hes done what hes done with having bad knees says a lot about him. Props to the former champ.
