Gilbert Burns believes he made a big mistake in his welterweight title fight with Kamaru Usman, and it ultimately ended up costing him.<\/p>\n

Burns challenged Usman for the UFC welterweight title in the main event of UFC 258 on Saturday night. The Brazilian challenger managed to drop the champion with a big punch early in the first round, but failed to finish the fight, and was ultimately stopped by a volley of punches in round three.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the event’s post-fight press conference<\/a>, Burns shared his belief that he got overeager when he hurt Usman early in the fight, stating that he “went Cody Garbrandt crazy,” referencing the former UFC bantamweight champion’s habit of abandoning game plans and getting sucked into frenetic brawls.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have so much respect for my guy,\u00a0Cody Garbrandt … I just went the same way,\u201d Burns said (via MMA Fighting<\/a>). \u201cAs soon as I saw he was hurt, forget about the strategy. I just went for the kill.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think I made the same mistake when I fought\u00a0Dan Hooker [and lost by knockout],\u201d Burns added later. \u201cTo become a champion, I cannot make those mistakes.\u201d<\/p>\n

While Burns feels he lost control when he hurt Usman, he credits the champion for keeping his composure throughout the entire fight.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe stayed disciplined,\u201d Burns said. \u201cHe\u2019s not quick. He doesn\u2019t hit that hard. But he\u2019s friggin\u2019 disciplined. And for me, it was the opposite. I got over excited, loaded up on my punches, and that was my mistake.\u201d<\/p>\n

Having already identified the errors he made in his fight with Usman, Burns is now keen to return to the drawing board, and with a little luck, become the champion in the future.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe way I see it right now, I just want to do it like\u00a0Robbie Lawler,\u201d Burns said.\u00a0\u201c[Lawler] was the only guy, if I\u2019m not wrong, that lost to Johnny Hendricks and then just got right back, fought again, and became a champion.<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope I don\u2019t get a crazy suspension, and I go back and rest, stay with my family a little bit,” Burn added. “I just want to fight as quick as I can. I know I can do it, and it was almost done, but I cannot make those mistakes and become a champion.\u201d<\/p>\n
