Islam Makhachev Calls Kamaru Usman His Biggest Threat

Current welterweight champion Makhachev (28-1) admitted former champion Usman (21-4) is his biggest danger by saying, “He’s experienced.” He cited Usman’s win over Buckley in June: “Kamaru ran through him; people just forgot,” Makhachev added. He praised Usman as “a good wrestler and striker,” with a similar style and maybe better strength. Makhachev insisted, “It will be a competitive fight.”
