Trevor Wittman as a coach must be so proud of his students, all of them getting the win this weekend inside Madison Square Garden at UFC 268. Justin Gaethje returned to action following his submission loss against Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 254 in an emphatic fashion, as he raked in yet another Fight of the Night bonus with a hard-fought unanimous decision win over Michael Chandler. 

In the co-main event, despite some adversity in the first couple of rounds, Rose Namajunas showed just why she will go down as the greatest strawweight champion of all time as she triumphed over Zhang Weili in the rematch to defend her strawweight gold in her second title reign. 

Heading into the main event, Kamaru Usman once again showed his composure, his power, and his vicious jabs that proved to be too good for Colby Covington. Usman dropped Covington twice in the second round and finished the fight on a great note to get the unanimous decision win.
