Della Maddalena's bout to win the title came against Belal Muhammad in one of the best fights of the year at UFC 315 this past May. Long before Usman's title reign ended at the hands of Leon Edwards three years ago, Usman vs. Muhammad appeared to be a collision that was destined to happen.

In a 5-round welterweight bout in the main event, Kamaru Usman and Joaquin Buckley meet Saturday at UFC on ESPN 69 at State Farm Arena in Atlanta.
