“Usman Look Like He 60 Years”: Lightweight Justin Gaethje Smashing Kamaru Usman on the Punching Machine in Now-Viral Clip Leaves UFC Fans Proposing Wild Ideas

Kamaru Usman and Justin Gaethje were seemingly having some fun outside of the Octagon. A video of them showing their power on a punching machine has gone viral. UFC fans have shared their reactions to the video in a post on social media.

‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ hasn’t had the best time in the UFC since losing his welterweight title to Leon Edwards at UFC 278. Moreover, he lost the trilogy fight at UFC 286, following which he is yet to announce his next fight and is now on a 2-fight losing streak. Meanwhile, Justin Gaethje is coming off a win against Rafael Fiziev and is preparing for his BMF championship fight against Dustin Poirier. However, that didn’t stop them from having some fun.

While many people have tested their kicking power, Usman and Gaethje tried their hands at the Spider Box punching machine, showing the power they have in their fists. The former welterweight champion tried his hands first and scored 823 newtons. However, it was Justin Gaethje who won the contest after scoring a whopping 895 newtons. Both fighters tested the strength of their non-dominant hand. The fans flocked to the comments section to give their take on the contest between the two UFC fighters. Let us take a look at the reactions.

The fans had mixed views about the punching contest as they claimed that Kamaru Usman punched like a 60-year-old. Another fan saw ‘The Highlight’s punch and claimed that he always packed a lot of power in his punches. Some even believe that ‘The Nigerian Predator’ didn’t really use his full power. Here are some reactions from fans on Instagram.

• Khamzat is waiting, one of you accept the match, don’t play with the toy
• This machine does not measure punching force. Just the speed of the bag

Some fans also claimed that both Justin Gaethje and Kamaru Usman used only 75 percent of their power. However, one user on Twitter wondered why they tested the power of their left hand. They brought up Khamzat Chimaev‘s name and urged both fighters to consider fighting him in the future. Moreover, the fans don’t think that the machine actually measures the punching power. Instead, it might measure the speed of the bag.
