A thoughtful plan for Kamaru Usman? Chael Sonnen shares his expertise on the subject

In a recent YouTube video, Chael Sonnen analyzes the opportunities Kamaru Usman has if she plans to change her weight class.

Kamaru Usman is at the top of her weight class and is king per kilo. He wiped out nearly half of his competition in the heavyweight division. The Nigerian Nightmare was out of the field due to an injury to his hand in his second leg against Colby Covington last November.

Usman has stated several times that his recovery will take much longer than expected, but the UFC has confirmed that we will see the Nigerian back in action at UFC 278 in August, where he will beat Leon Edwards in the title fight.

Calculated move: Chael Sonnen gives Kamaru Usman an edge if he advances in a weight class

In his latest video, American Promoter talks about how he thinks Kamaru Usman will retain the speed advantage against his opponents if he moves into the light-heavyweight category. However, there is the additional possibility that if he were to decide to switch weight classes, he would have to give up his middleweight title.

Chael says, “He will have tremendous speed. So you can get X’s and O’s and start having fun and even say to me, ‘Hey Chael, it’s too big and it’s not going to go there. Kamaru Usman drenched drenched not 205 weights [lbs]… I think if we’re going there, if we’re going to be really serious when we get there, Kamaru will have to unload 170 pounds.”

Even Usman’s manager, Ali Abdelaziz, openly claimed that Usman could beat the top three light heavyweights. Since the famous executive is not known to have done or said anything for nothing, Chael thinks it’s some kind of marketing strategy.
