Former UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman says he is ready to welcome Dustin Puryear to his division if he decides to change categories.

On June 1 in the main event of UFC 302 in Newark, S.C., Puryear made a third failed attempt to win a full lightweight title, losing by fifth-round choke hold to Islam Makhachev.

"I'm not emphasizing it, but if Dustin wants to move up in weight ... Our fight would be fun. I'm not challenging Puryear. It would be a real spectacle, though. If I got to fight a guy like Dustin, it would be fantastic," Usman said on his YouTube channel.
