‘He Has A Big Chest And Little Balls’

Unbeaten striker, Ian Garry has sparked a feud with former undisputed welterweight champion, Kamaru Usman ahead of this weekend’s UFC 310 card, alleging that the Nigerian avoided a potential fight in the past — stating that despite his sizeable stature, Usman has “little balls” when it comes to fighting.

Garry, currently ranked number seven in the welterweight division, makes his return this weekend at UFC 310, co-headlining the final event of the year in a title eliminator against former training partner and fellow unbeaten contender, Shavkat Rakhmonov.

Sidelined since June, Ian Garry from Portmarnock secured his fifteenth professional victory with a unanimous decision win over Michael ‘Venom’ Page during International Fight Week on the main card of UFC 303.

Despite preparing for his grudge match with Rakhmonov this week, Dublin’s counter striker, Garry has ignited a potential rivalry with Auchi veteran, Usman, by claiming that he turned down a fight against him in the past.

“(Kamaru) Usman has a big chest and little balls,” Ian Garry expressed during an interview with Ariel Helwani for Uncrowned. “He looks good, and plays the part, but when it matters between the legs, he’s a little man. That’s my outlook on it…him and Colby are older, been through the division, fought these guys. Now they’re getting to the end of their careers and they want to choose the better stylistic matchups. But I guarantee this: Usman is going to try to push for a fight with Jack Della Maddalena because he’s seen how easily Gilbert Burns was able to take him down.

“If I was in Usman’s shoes, why would I wanna fight the guy that’s long, rangey, difficult to deal with, when I can fight a guy who I watched two people back-to-back be able to take him down quite easily? I guarantee you Usman is going to try to push for the JDM fight, because he’s weak-minded.”
