It seems like Poatan has impressed Kamaru Usman mainly due to his vicious left hook. Usman said,

Let him fight in rio, in Brazil as far as moving up is. I think everybody in that Middleweight, Light Heavyweight, and Heavyweight division are in trouble when they fight a guy like Alex Pereira.

Kamaru Usman clarified that anyone in the most significant three divisions will have trouble dealing with that guy. Pereira’s left hook is a weapon his opponents need to be wary of. Usman made it clear that Alex Pereira can contend for the title in the three most significant divisions in the UFC. The man will have no trouble dealing with the size of his Heavyweight counterparts.
