Sometimes, a different vantage point can completely change perspectives.
When Kamaru Usman was on his rise to the welterweight title, he took a little heat for not being more of a finisher. That meant his UFC 251 unanimous decision title defense over Jorge Masvidal, while dominant, also was derided a bit.
So when Masvidal got a rematch at UFC 261, and Usman violently put him away in the second round, there had to have been a lot of pent-up emotion that came out. Now you can see footage of that moment in a new way that will make you feel like you’re running the camera yourself.
The UFC released a second compilation video featuring just the sounds of the fighters, the arena and the corners – no commentary – of some of the most famous moments in company history, including Usman’s win over Masvidal; Valentina Shevchenko’s head-kick KO of Jessica Eye; Sean O’Malley’s title win over Aljamain Sterling; and many more.
Check out Usman’s win from three years ago, which stands as his most recent finish, as well as some other incredible UFC moments, in the video above. And below, don’t miss more coverage of those legendary fights.
