Muhammad for the welterweight title at UFC 310 on Saturday
earlier than the champ was pressured out with an an infection. “Nomad” was
finally matched up in opposition to Ian Garry in
the night’s co-headliner on the T-Cellular Enviornment in Las Vegas.

Rakhmonov and Kamaru

the one fighter who was provided a matchup in opposition to him at UFC 310.
Based on “Nomad,” Usman, Carlos
Prates and Colby
Covington all turned down bookings in opposition to him for varied
causes. Whereas Prates was injured, Covington merely turned it down
and Usman backed out after initially accepting the battle.
“I wished to battle Kamaru Usman. However he didn’t settle for the battle,”
Rakhmonov informed Submission Radio. “Additionally, they provided to Prates, however
he was injured. And Colby Covington, he rejected the battle. And I’m
completely happy that Ian Garry accepted the battle… To start with [Usman]

In the meantime, Usman went off on battle followers for accusing him of ducking
Rakhmomov. “The Nigerian Nightmare” cited his spectacular title
reign in his protection, refuting allegations of being fearful of the
Kazakh.
“While you as followers don’t get their desired want that they need,
‘That’s the battle I would like.’ Then it’s like, ‘Oh no, that man have to be
scared as a result of he didn’t take the battle.’ Like guys, shut up. Shut
up,” Usman stated on the Pound 4 Pound present. “We step in there every
and each time. I’ve 22-25 fights… Everybody, ‘Oh you’re scared.’
OK. World champion at defending belts time and time once more. ‘Oh
you’re scared.’ Shut up.”
