UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman says he will be interested moving up to the middleweight division, but only if his friend Israel Adesanya was no longer champion.
However, the Nigerian-born Texan has admitted the move is dependent on Adesanya as he “would never entertain going up to fight Izzy” and claims he would rather “two Africans held belts than one African with two belts.” “Absolutely, absolutely. If Izzy’s willing to move up – well he is moving up, but if he’s willing to give up that 185 belt and says “I have nothing to do with that anymore”, then absolutely I would entertain that thought,” he told“On no account right now would I ever entertain going up to fight Izzy. That’s just not something that I’m interested in.
However, it is likely that Adesanya will step up a weight class to fight Jan Blachowicz for the light heavyweight title.
