NEW YORK – Dana White thinks Colby Covington would beat everybody in the welterweight division … except champion Kamaru Usman . Usman (20-1 MMA, 15-0 UFC) retained his title in another thrilling war against Covington (16-2 MMA, 11-2 UFC) this past Saturday in the main event of UFC 268 when he was able to fend off Covington’s late surge. The champion looked sharp early, dropping Covington twice in Round 2. The always tough Covington came surging back in the championship rounds, but Usman was able to survive his rally. Following the fight, White lauded Covington for his valiant effort, saying he just happens to be in the same division as the current No.
