Usman vs Covington Prop Bet

All Usman vs Covington odds, lines and prop bets are available on FanDuel Sportsbook.
- Method of Victory: Usman by Points (+105) — Kamaru Usman and Colby Covington are two of the best offensive wrestlers in the UFC, but having never been taken down, Usman could have the edge defensively. He also holds a big edge in significant strike output, turning in one of the most dominant championship performances in UFC history, out-landing then-champion Tyron Woodley, 141 to 34, in significant strikes. Usman's last four wins have all come on points, including three straight in five-round fights, something that has been by far his most common method of victory in the UFC.
