Just a great fight period The stakes are established from the very beginning with Burns wobbling Usman nearly knocking him down to get you attention and even more highlights come from there only from Usman after recovering to get a finish later on. Probably the only fight I've seen from Usman that I really enjoy. Probably one of my favorite fights ever. Probably one of the best fights to point to someone who isn't a fan.
