"I like the matchup, but we have a tendency to get excited for these Ian Garry matchups, and they don't turn out the way we think. I'm being honest. Did I not say the same thing about the Michael 'Venom' Page fight," Usman said on an episode of his podcast Pound 4 Pound with Henry Cejudo.
"Make it look pretty to where you have a guy like Shavkat, who is kind of a seek and destroy type of guy. He wants to get into the action," he said.
"It's an intriguing fight because there's a little bit of backstory. I think it's going to make for a little bit more animosity as we get closer to the fight, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's not the most electrifying fight that we've ever seen like we're expecting," he said.
