In July 2020, Kamaru Usman defended his UFC welterweight title with a unanimous decision victory over Jorge Masvidal. Despite the uneven victory – only one judge scored a single round for Masvidal.
Usman vs Masvidal 2 broadcast live tonight on ESPN + and marks the second time the two fighters will meet in less than a year. Usman successfully defended his UFC welterweight title by unanimous decision against Masvidal at UFC 251 last July. But Masvidal had shown up for the fight as a last-minute replacement for Gilbert Burns. With more training time under his belt – and a previous crack in the champion – Masvidal should be better prepared for the rematch.

UFC 261 fight card, predictions, odds
According to: Rolling stone
A UFC welterweight championship rematch between current champion Kamaru Usman and Jorge Masvidal is the flagship fight of UFC 261. Usman aka the “Nigerian nightmare” is the current favorite to win, according to punters from odds. But Masvidal is quickly rising through the ranks, as the current number four challenger in the welterweight division, and it might turn out to be a surprise as he takes on Usman for the second time.
The rest of the map is also stacked with huge matches, including a UFC Women’s Strawweight Championship bout between current champion, Chinese star Zhang Weili, and former champion Rose Namajunas. The match is billed as a co-main event and the bookmakers appear to be divided over who is the favorite; while Weili is known for her brute strength and power, Namajunas can keep the edge on agility and ground play.
The third title fight on the main card is the UFC Women’s Flyweight Championship bout between current champion Valentina Shevchenko and former strawweight champion Jéssica Andrade.
The rest of the main card features a middleweight rematch between former UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman and Uriah Hall, and Jimmy Crute against Anthony Smith in a lightweight bout.
