Kamaru Usman breaks down Belal Muhammad vs. Jack Della Maddalena fight

After dethroning Leon Edwards at UFC 304, Belal Muhammad is scheduled to make his first title defense against Jack Della Maddalena at UFC 315 at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. 'Remember The Name's' rival, Kamaru Usman, recently shared his perspective on the welterweight title fight.

In an interview with Brett Okamoto, 'The Nigerian Nightmare' had this to say:

"A lot of people are kinda writing [Jack Della Maddalena] off here. He has a good chance. I think he has more pop, little bit more power than Belal [Muhammad]. I think his striking is a little bit more fluid than Belal. Obviously, Belal's pace and grappling will potentially give him some problems. But, I don't count him completely out of that fight."
