Preview: UFC286 ‘Edwards vs. Usman 3’ via omgitsfeely
in a matchup of the most underrated fighters in the weight class. Edwards looked set to announce himself with a strong comeback performance, but what looked like a win turned into a no contest thanks to an errant eye poke, leaving his career without much momentum once again. Yet somehow, this all was enough for Edwards to wind up facingin a five-round pay-per-view fight—an unexpected gift that figured to finally be the high-profile showcase that could vault him into title contention.
In contrast to Edwards’ long and winding road to championship glory, Usman’s rise was notable for exactly how clean it was. Having essentially won his season of “The Ultimate Fighter” right before the first fight against Edwards, “The Nigerian Nightmare” was a top prospect immediately upon his UFC debut, mostly thanks to an absolutely crushing wrestling game.
