The more as time passes I see this as a new years card... Oh and new
Usman already stated in an interview that he won't fight in 2019 bc of "injuries he already had for a couple of fights". It's just sad how every champ suddenly needs every little issue fixed, but when they were in contention they had no problem fighting with it.WTF. He only just won the belt a few months ago, plus Cringey has had every opportunity to fight Usman & wanted no part of him.
I'm predicting Oct/ Nov
Yes obviously. They now have the financial security to actually rehab and rest. Good for them.It's just sad how every champ suddenly needs every little issue fixed, but when they were in contention they had no problem fighting with it.
It was almost half a year ago now no?WTF. He only just won the belt a few months ago, plus Cringey has had every opportunity to fight Usman & wanted no part of him.

UFC should just have a rule of 6 months no title defense = immediate strip of the belt.
Yes i'm not blaming the fighters for it, I would do the same. But the UFC should fix this.Yes obviously. They now have the financial security to actually rehab and rest. Good for them.
You can make it 6 months and have some rules that could extend that period if there's serious need for it (UFC doctor checks etc.)Must have missed that about Usman being out.
I agree about having a set term in which a champ needs to have defended, but with how brutal MMA is on the body I'd make it a year.
It was almost half a year ago now no?
Edit:maybe a quarter? Shouldn't he have a bout signed?
Just pay all the fighters more and standardize the pay scale for champs.Yes i'm not blaming the fighters for it, I would do the same. But the UFC should fix this.
To be fair, Jon Jones is defending his belt pretty soon here and also fought at 235. Does Usman have any fight announced? I'm honestly asking. Not trying to be a dick.WTF. He only just won the belt a few months ago, plus Cringey has had every opportunity to fight Usman & wanted no part of him.

Colby is a better wrestler than Usman with a bigger gas tank. Probably the second best cardio in the sport next to Tony. Kamaru only really has a striking advantage and it’s not much of one.
This is an incredibly difficult fight for Usman and I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s doing a little bit of ducking.
If Kamaru can’t defend this year he should be stripped and Colby should fight for belt. No interim, no bs.
