scales ahead of a big
Ultimate Fighting Championship fight card.
The UFC will put on its second pay-per-view of 2021 this weekend.
Kamaru Usman and Gilbert
Burns.
Looking to win his 13th straight fight inside the Octagon is Usman
(17-1). Since defeating Tyron
Woodley to win the championship, “The Nigerian Nightmare” has
been dominant knocking out Colby
Covington and winning a one-sided decision over Jorge
Masvidal. Although Usman hit the scales initially at 170.5
pounds, upon removing his mask and socks, Usman weighed 170 pounds
on the dot.
Looking at his first shot at championship gold, Burns (19-3) is
carrying plenty of momentum as well. Since being knocked out by
Dan
Hooker, Burns has won six straight including big victories over
Demian
Maia and Tyron
Woodley. “Durinho” stepped on the scales weighing 170 pounds
exactly.
