BJPENN.com Fighter Picks Kamaru Usman vs. Colby Covington 2:

Brent Primus, Bellator lightweight: I’m going with Usman. He’s a beast, he’s tough to break, and a great wrestler. His boxing has improved so much from the first fight, that he will be able to pick apart Covington.

Billy Quarantillo, UFC featherweight: I think Covington is a good fighter but right now Usman looks unbeatable. Usman is the best welterweight and I think he will get it done but it will be close and a great fight.

Grant Dawson, UFC lightweight: I’m taking Usman. Usman has gotten so much better since their first fight and his striking has gotten so much better. Covington has only had the one fight since and I don’t think he has improved.

Ricky Glenn, UFC lightweight: I’m up on the air in that one, I think Usman gets it done again but I wouldn’t be surprised if Covington wins it.

Chris Curtis, UFC middleweight: I’ve got to go with Usman. Covington hasn’t been active and inactivity is a real thing at the highest level. Usman’s striking is so much better as well.

Adrian Yanez, UFC bantamweight: I think Kamaru Usman stays champ. It will be competitive as Covington is pretty similar to Usman in skill sets, just Usman is better.

Sean Woodson, UFC featherweight: I’m going with Kamaru Usman again. Kamaru keeps leveling up and I think Covington is the same fighter as last time.

Jordan Williams, UFC welterweight: Usman by stoppage again. He has leveled up since the last fight.

Ike Villaneuva, UFC light heavyweight: Kamaru Usman. He has been getting better every fight and his striking will be the difference again as I don’t think Covington will be able to hang with him on the feet.

Ode Osbourne, UFC flyweight: Usman for me. I think he knocks out Covington again, but I do expect Covington to try and wrestle this time around as he won’t have anything for Usman on the feet.
