Dricus Du Plessis vs Kamaru Usman in negotiations for potential July bout

A potential middleweight title fight between Dricus Du Plessis and Kamaru Usman is reportedly in the negotiation stage and could take place in July. This development raises questions about what will happen with Caio Borralho, who was previously considered a potential title challenger. The matchup would see former welterweight champion Usman move up to middleweight to challenge the current champion Du Plessis. The source of the information is listed as KevinK. If finalized, this would be a significant cross-divisional challenge, though the report notes that negotiations are still ongoing.
