Usman vs Covington: This Is More Then A Title Fight

Its Official, The title fight that was already written in stone Karmau Usman and Colby Covington are on a collision course with each other for the Welterweight Championship. The Tension between these two is already at a high, so with it being the UFC going forward with this match, Are they ready for what is Potential to come?

With the UFC in the recent past, most notable the build up to UFC 229 getting alot of World wide attention with Conor McGregors comments towards Khabib Nurmagomedov about Relgion,Culture and Country. Are the UFC ready again for this sort of behaviour, this time being with Colby Covingtons 'Gimmick'.

It is as clear as day that Colby does get attention for his 'Gimmick' and it has split fans from the get go. Its is too much? To close to reality? Either way Colby doesn't care.

Karmau Usman has not been shy of expressing his opinion on Colby and letting the MMA world know his true feelings, saying in many interviews, he wants to destroy Colby in a devastated way. This rivalry has not just been made since UFC Newark,with Colbys win over Robbie Lawler, this has been brewing for some time and it's now has got people's attention more now. This is more then just a title fight now, this is personal.

With both fighters representing two different backgrounds and Countries, emotions will flare between the two, which I already had on serpatre occasions. The build up to this fight is going to get ugly and real, and I am not looking forward to it. This will eventually get mainstream attention, which will hype up the fight more. Lines have already been drawn, and we dont even have an official date yet.

Kamaru Usman and Colby Covington will fight at some point, This will be Usman's first title Defence and he wants his first to be remembered and Colby wants to "Make Welterweight Great Again". We will see how this all plays out.
