Tonight's UFC 261 live stream kicks off with a rematch between Usman vs Masvidal in the big welterweight title fight Kamaru Usman (champion) comes in as the favorite (-420), and with his 18-1 record, it's hard to doubt him But can Jorge Masvidal stop his 17-match winning streak?

The last time they met was last summer, when Masvidal made a belated appearance (less than a week later) after Gilbert Burns was taken off the field due to a positive test for Covid-19 Usman responded with some serious grappling that broke up Masvidal's offense The loss snapped Masvidal's three-fight winning streak, but he is eager for revenge, and his fans are eager for a fight that is not decided by a judges' decision

In the semi-main event, Weili Chan's defense of her women's strawweight title against Rose Namajunas is also a must-see The champion is favored to win this one as well, but Namajunas is a former champion and should not be underestimated

Chan, though, is on a 21-fight winning streak That's right, she lost her first match and hasn't taken an L since
