All three judges ruled overwhelmingly in favor of Du Plessis. The outcome has left Usman pondering just how much gas he has left in the tank. "Right now, I have to sit with the coaches and the team and assess kind of everything and place where I'm at in my career -- all in all, see if it's worth continuing to do this, whether it's worth continuing to put them through that," Usman said."Listen, I've never really gone out there and not represented them appropriately, myself and my coaches. This one was a hard one because I felt I didn't do that."This story will be updated. More UFC news: UFC legend Dustin Poirier gets brutally honest following viral arrest videoJustin Gaethje sends clear message regarding retirement from UFCAlex Pereira calls out Ciryl Gane, Herb Dean after loss at UFC Freedom 250Conor McGregor reveals date for final fight on current UFC contractIlia Topuria breaks silence after crushing loss to Justin Gaethje at UFC Freedom 250Michael Kaskey-BlomainMichael Kaskey-Blomain is a freelance writer with The Sporting News.
