Former UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman shared his thoughts on the upcoming fight between lightweight division titleholder Islam Makhachev and Dustin Puryear.

"There's one little detail that most people haven't noticed - Makhachev and Porier are both left-handed. And Dustin is very good against left-handed fighters. He fought left-handed Conor McGregor - and we remember how that ended. He just had a fight with left-handed St. Denis - the outcome is known," Usman said on the Pound4Pound podcast.

Recall that the Dagestani and the American will meet in the main event of UFC 302, which is scheduled for June 1 in Newark, USA.
