Kamaru Usman says Magomed Ankalaev should be first in line for LHW title shot

Kamaru Usman expressed his belief that Magomed Ankalaev deserves to be the number one contender for the light heavyweight title. The post is brief and does not elaborate on Usman's reasoning beyond this statement. It invites audience reaction on whether Ankalaev has done enough to warrant an immediate title shot or if he needs one or two more victories. Ankalaev has been a consistent presence in the top of the light heavyweight rankings. Usman's endorsement adds a notable voice to the discussion about the division's title picture.
