Gilbert Burns is COVID-19 negative, clearing path to Kamaru Usman and UFC title shot
@Blackshirts BLVD ... stay tuned.
Gilbert Burns is now COVID-19 negative, clearing the way for a shot at UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman.
Masvidal was hoping for a rematch with a full fight camp, but UFC president Dana White has already declared that Burns would get the next crack at Usman as soon as he is cleared of COVID.
Burns on Monday posted test results from Access Medical Labs, showing a negative result for Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), the coronavirus known to cause COVID-19.
It is unclear how soon the UFC will want to host the Usman vs. Burns bout, but they'll likely try to do it before the end of 2020.
I might be riding high on Burns because of his utter domination of Woodley (who doesn't seem to have his head in the game), but Burns was nonetheless impressive and he has weapons everywhere in his striking and his ground game... his wrestling isn't terrible either. Not sure about his clinch work though.
i was 1 - 4 on the main card saturday.
I like burns a lot. He came with a world Brazilion jiu jitsu championship, but he's become much stronger and better with his hands since then. He lands a very heavy blow.
I think he matches up against usman as well as anyone right now.
