5 UFC fighters who've never had problems cutting weight

#4. Kamaru Usman

Like his fellow Nigerian, Israel Adesanya, Kamaru Usman is one of the larger fighters in his division. While Adesanya is leaner and lankier, Usman possesses a more muscular physique which, when combined with his height and reach, gifts him a frame that could easily translate to the middleweight division.

Not only would his frame translate to the middleweight division, but his dimensions are greater than those of the former middleweight champion Robert Whittaker.

Yet, despite his large stature in his current weight class, Usman has never struggled to make weight for any of his fights. He's also never been diminished by what is clearly a large weight cut as the ruling welterweight champion walks around at between 190 and 200 lbs.

#3. Colby Covington

Former interim welterweight champion Colby Covington is, thus far, a career welterweight. Known for his relentless pace and high volume, Covington's fighting style relies as much on his bottomless gas tank as it does on his high-level wrestling pedigree.

As a fighter who never seems to slow down in his fights, Colby does not suffer from the diminishing effects of difficult weight cuts.

Given his years of experience cutting weight for wrestling match-ups, Covington has mastered the art of not only shedding water weight, but staying in good enough shape that he is never far off the 170 lbs mark. He has never missed weight nor seems to have ever come close to doing so.
