Short notice Usman coming off two losses and moving up a weight class was a bigger challenge ?I don't see what the organization preventing him from fighting in this country has to do with this thread (which is about goalpost moving)
Not everyone said that, no. Many (myself included) said Kamaru (best TDD in the sport at the time) was a bigger challenge than Costa (not the best TDD in the sport).
Again, I get that the fight is over so now is the time to shit on Kamaru and say "lol never that good" and all that garbage.
... and wins. A guy who beats every top 5 person (champs included) is not overrated. But keep that energy / give him his props if he beats Rob instead of tossing Rob in the trash afterwards like many did with Burns and Kamaru
The problem was that Khamzat only looked dominant in the first round and short camp Usman was looking stronger as the fight went on and I believe could beat him in a five rounder.
