As Kamaru Usman prepares to face Joaquin Buckley at UFC Fight Night, the focus is on Usman's current fighting capabilities as he approaches 40 and has not won in over three years. Buckley's six-fight winning streak adds pressure as fans wonder if Usman can remain relevant in the title picture or if he’s becoming obsolete. Usman, previously a dominant champion, chooses silence over commentary, indicating confidence in his abilities that will be showcased on fight night.
"I'm just f---ing tired. Why do I need to be talking? On Saturday, we're going to be locked in [the Octagon], and that's when I'm going to do the talking."
When Buckley asked Usman about fighting the ‘new gen,’ it highlighted the crucial question of whether Usman can still contend or if he’s passed his prime.
