Usman vs Burns: Clash of Classmates – Bloody Elbow
Bloody Elbow’s Connor Ruebusch breaks down the evolving striking games of Kamaru Usman and Gilbert Burns ahead of their clash at UFC 258.
At the start of 2015, Kamaru Usman and Gilbert Burns were both new to the UFC. Burns was 7-0, having just notched a couple of wins in the Octagon, and Usman, 5-1 with two exhibition wins on The Ultimate Fighter, was poised to earn his first. Both had already accomplished a great deal in other combat sports: Burns boasted four gold medals in three different World Jiu-Jitsu Championships, and Usman was a gold medalist and three-time All American in NCAA Division II wrestling.
