Even though (or perhaps because) Jorge Masvidal replaced Gilbert Burns on one weeks notice to challenge Kamaru Usman for the welterweight gold, UFC 251 sold an incredible amount of PPV’s.
Usman eventually stood as the winner via unanimous decision after five rounds.
The stacked card also featured a featherweight title bout rematch between Alexander Volkanovski and Max Holloway, as well as massive names like Rose Namajunas, Jessica Andrade, Petr Yan and Jose Aldo.
