Most people didn&#8217;t know that,&#8221; Usman said on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HZ2IhMRoOiQ&amp;t=1145s&amp;ab_channel=FULLSENDPODCAST\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nelk Boys&#8217; Full Send podcast<\/a>. &#8220;I broke it three weeks before and I didn&#8217;t throw it until the day of the fight, I didn&#8217;t throw it until I was backstage when you are warming up before the fight. I didn&#8217;t throw my hands for three weeks, my right hand&#8230; I broke it on someone&#8217;s head, Justin Gaethje&#8217;s head.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kamaru Usman is coming off a decision win over Covington at UFC 268 to defend his welterweight title. Once he is healthy and able to fight again, it&#8217;s likely he will rematch Leon Edwards next as he continues to clear out the welterweight division. Prior to the win over Covington, he scored a KO win over Jorge Masvidal in April and a TKO win over Gilbert Burns in February to cap off a phenomenal 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Who would you like to see Kamaru Usman fight next?
