Quick read

According to insider Kevin K., a middleweight title fight between Dricus Du Plessis and Kamaru Usman is currently in negotiation stages and could take place in July. This development follows recent social media exchanges between Du Plessis and Caio Borralho, where the champion challenged Borralho to come spar at his gym in South Africa. If the Usman fight materializes, it raises questions about Borralho's next opponent, as the Brazilian has been actively campaigning for a title shot. The potential matchup would see former welterweight champion Usman moving up to challenge for the middleweight belt.
