UFC President Dana White maintains that Kamaru Usman has not lost his edge, despite a recent string of defeats. White asserted that Usman's performance at UFC Oklahoma City did not indicate a fighter nearing the end of their career.

Following Kamaru Usman's latest outing at UFC Oklahoma City, President Dana White has publicly stated his belief that the former champion still possesses championship-level ability. This comes despite Usman's difficult recent record, having lost four of his last five contests.

White's comments suggest that he doesn't view Usman's recent performances as a sign of significant decline. Instead, he seems to interpret Usman's fighting spirit and capabilities as still being intact, even in the face of adversity.

The UFC President's remarks effectively shut down any immediate speculation about retirement for the veteran fighter, indicating that Usman is still a valued part of the UFC roster and is expected to continue competing.

💬 Fulltime Take

Dana White's unwavering support for Usman, even with a 1-4 record in his last five, smacks of loyalty over objective assessment. While he may still 'have it' in training, the cage tells a different story.
