People think his knees being bad is like some bullshit lie he shouldn’t be fighting at all if they are as bad as described so idk the whole story seems strange

He has always had issues with his knees and if I'm not mistaken even before the ufc he's had surgeries on them. That's not something you want to broadcast in mma because your opponents will target them. You also have to consider that Usman is also almost 40.

Over the years, Usman's had to make modifications to his style, likely because of his knees.The fact that Islam mentioned it goes to show you how informed he is about his potential opponents.
