Kamaru Usman, a former UFC welterweight champion, commented on previously reported information that he would enter the fight against Chimaev with an injury.
"This is madness. Showcasing how people pounce on breaking news. How could you even hear anything when Justin and I are wrestling on stage in front of thousands of people? Were you there to claim that I said that? It's stupid. If I injured my knee, then why would I get up and work on my feet? God, people believe everything they read on the internet. Stop making up scandalous headlines. I didn’t say anything like that.”
