Triple Take: Which UFC welterweight is most likely to dethrone Kamaru Usman?

Kamaru Usman cemented his position as the UFC’s premier welterweight with a third-round TKO of No. 1 contender Gilbert Burns at UFC 258, and his reign of dominance at the top of the 170-pound division continued this past Saturday.

Usman now has defended his title three times since he dominated Tyron Woodley to win it. His wins over Colby Covington, Jorge Masvidal and Burns all showed Usman’s championship credentials. He outlasted the division’s cardio king, outbattled one of the most seasoned fighters in the UFC, then stopped one of the hardest punchers in the weight class.

Usman’s latest win means he now is riding a 17-fight winning streak, including an unbeaten 13-0 in the UFC with dominant victories over six of the current top 10, including each fighter currently in the top four.

It begs the question: Which UFC welterweight is most likely to dethrone Usman? In this week’s edition of Triple Take, MMA Junkie’s Farah Hannoun, Simon Head and Danny Segura offer their views on who from the UFC’s 170-pound division might have the best chance of taking out “The Nigerian Nightmare.
