10 Crazy UFC Fights You Must Watch In February

1. Kamaru Usman Vs. Gilbert Burns - UFC 258

It's been obvious for a very long time that UFC welterweight champion, Kamaru Usman, is one of the best fighter in the world. However, he never seems to get the credit he deserves. It could be because of his fighting style or because he just hasn't had that career-defining moment yet, but he's certainly underrated.

His opponent, Gilbert Burns, is not only a high level jiu-jitsu world champion turned well-rounded mixed martial artist, he's also a former teammate of Usman. This makes for an incredibly interesting bout between two opponent's who know each other extremely well.

Both men have sparred so much that they must be aware of who got the upperhand in the vast majority of their battles, so it's a case of who has managed to make the miniscule changes to throw their opponent off. Both men are dangerous in all areas, so wherever this fight will go, plenty of action will follow.
