Tonight, Saturday, February 13th., 2021, in the main event of
UFC 258, we had ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’, the reigning UFC Welterweight Champion, Kamaru Usman, with a remarkable 17-1 record, return to the octagon after a seven month break from UFC action to defend the title against contender Gilbert ‘Durinho’ Burns, with his impressive 19-3 record. Originally, this fight was slated for UFC 251 in July, 2020, but was cancelled after Burns and his coach, Greg Jones, tested positive for COVID-19. Then they looked like they would go at it at UFC 256, but the bout was delayed again due to Usman recovering from injuries — tonight it finally happened. In the replacement co-main event, we had a Flyweight tilt between Maycee ‘The Future’ Barber, who entered the octagon with a 8-1 record vs. Alexa Grasso, with her 12-3 record.
