UFC's Main Event of Kamaru Usman vs Jorge Masvidal has been branded as a 'complete utter borefest' on Wikipedia after Usman won the bout via decision. The online encyclopedia was hijacked to say as such.
Kamaru Usman was able to successfully defend his UFC Welterweight Championship against Jorge Masvidal.
Usman got the decision with all three judges after suffocating Gamebred in Abu Dhabi. The Champion is now 12-0 in UFC and has stretched his unbeaten MMA run to 16.
The bout was seen as quite boring, with the result going to a decision after the five rounds, and was changed by users on Wikipedia to mark the general consensus of the fight.

The fight was seen as that boring that fans even wanted their money back for the Pay-Per-View.

Usman has been the butt of many jokes since the fight for his strategy of foot stomping throughout.
My take away is that Usman was afraid. He got 5 takedowns and only did damage with one of them. The rest of the fight he just leaned on the cage while stomping feet. #UsmanvsMasvidal pic.twitter.com/lqFMQH4Fya

Speaking after his victory, Usman said:
"Gamebred is the biggest, baddest dude out there right now and I had to switch gears to prepare for him on six weeks' notice...I had to make a mental switch, I prepared for Gilbert I had a completely different gameplay.
"Gamebred is tough and he showed it out there."I think Jorge is tough. I've always said it...Jorge is a tough guy and I give him credit for that. I'm just a level better."
