UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman said he would never agree to a duel with the organization's lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov.

"I'd never agree to a fight Khabib. He is my brother. I do not see the possibility for such a fight..." Usman said.

Usman also said that he would not fight against middleweight champion Israel Adesanya. According to Usman, it's better to have two champions from Nigeria than one champion with two belts.
