Kamaru Usman borrows another Conor McGregor phrase as rivalry heats up

Kamaru Usman has again been caught using a famous Conor McGregor phrase in an interview where he pretended not to know the Irishman.

The welterweight world champion is the pound-for-pound No.1 fighter in the world, and hasn't lost in the UFC including multiple fights with top contenders in his division. But he has been mocked by fans on occasion for sometimes borrowing from McGregor's playbook of witty one-liners.

And the Nigerian has been caught again, this time recounting a famous McGregor line about "not seeing a face" when he fights an opponent. He told TMZ Sports "I don't see a face. There's an opponent on the dotted line and I just do the best that I can that on that night I step in there and I'm victorious."
