Not because of any phony drama or edgy persona, but because it's a fight between two of the very best at WW who have quite similar styles with the key difference being that one favors power while the other relies on volume. I actually think that the fight might be exciting based on this, neither guy will just accept the other being in control of the tempo and will try to get momentum on their side at any point in the match.
We haven't seen either guy be put in precarious positions before either, at least not against an opponent of this caliber (top 3). Colby had a back-and-forth third round with Pyle 5 years ago, and got tapped by Warlley, while Usman got stung by Hayder Hassan and was stuck in a Emil guillotine, but besides that they've been consistent and dominant.
Fuck me, boys, I'm actually excited for a fight between two grinding wrestlers.
