UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman recently followed in the footsteps of Dustin Poirier, by appearing on the wildly popular YouTube series Hot Ones. For those unfamiliar with the show, Hot Ones features celebrities being interviewed while they eat hot wings. The wings get spicier as the interview progresses.

Check out whether Usman was able to keep his cool and take down the spiciest wings on the table:

Recently it was announced that Usman’s next title defence would come against bitter rival Colby Covington. It’s unknown when and where that fight would take place.

Usman beat Covington, in devastating fashion, at UFC 245 in December 2019. That was ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’’s first title defence after winning the belt from Tyron Woodley nine months earlier.

After TKOing Covington, Usman defended versus Jorge Masvidal (unanimous decision) and Gilbert Burns (TKO). Most recently, at UFC 261 in April, he rematched Masvidal. That fight ended with a thunderous KO win for the champion.
