Kamaru Usman has revealed his original plan to move up to light heavyweight and return for a grand defense at welterweight.
The longtime reigning UFC welterweight champion Usman finally got dethroned by only the second-ever English UFC champion Leon Edwards last month. After getting off to a solid start, Usman looked set to rack up another win by unanimous decision. However, a brutal kick to the head from Edwards with just 56 seconds left in the contest handed Usman his first loss in the promotion.
In an appearance on the popular podcast show, Joe Rogan Experience, Kamaru Usman shared his original plans prior to the shocking upset at UFC 278. He was eyeing a move up two divisions to challenge the light heavyweight king Jiri Prochazka and had he been successful in that venture, he would have looked for the former 205-pound titleholder Jan Blachowicz.
“This was my roadmap,” Usman said. “Beat Leon in the way that I wanted to and go to 205, beat Jiri Prochazka, defend with Jan, come back down, defend with Khamzat. And then, if Conor wanted to, or if Canelo at that point wanted to, do one and just sail off.”
As ambitious as his plans appear to be now, he could have had the opportunity to embark on his desired route had he retained the belt.
Usman believes that he could compete against two of the best light heavyweights in the company but admitted the challenge and did not discredit them. He seems to have the same plan in his mind, just with an additional stop on the way now.
“So, I think I could deal with Jiri and Jan. Not saying they’re not great, they’re scary, they’re f**king big scary guys, which is kind of what makes it also tempting for me. It’s cause they are scary.
“I have a new roadmap,” Usman added. “Just a pit stop, I gotta run it back with Leon.”

Jiri Prochazka will possibly rematch Glover Teixeira in his first outing as a champion.
The reigning light heavyweight king Prochazka pulled off an incredible comeback in the main event title fight of UFC 275 against the former champion Glover Teixeira. In one of the most exciting 205-pound outings in history, Prochazka was not satisfied with his performance. Although he had indicated he would take on former titleholder Jan Blachowicz in his first title defense, he believes running it back with Teixeira would be more meaningful.
Tim Simpson of Paradigm Sports, Prochazka’s manager talked about his client’s next bout. While nothing appears to have been solidified with the UFC, an immediate rematch with Teixeira looks set.
“Nothing has been confirmed on who or when yet, but Jiri came out and expressed he wanted to fight Glover. And, of course, Glover wants the fight back from my understanding of what the UFC wants,” Simpson told MMA Junkie. “Jiri was really open to fighting anybody. We met with the UFC and Jiri was kind of like, ‘What do you want to do?’ It started trending toward Glover.
“For Jiri to take that challenge again, it says a lot about him. He’s all about challenge. He says it: ‘What is my greatest challenge at this stage?’ I think that’s a fight that will happen, and we’re just kind of closing in on a date.”
In their first outing, Glover seemed to be getting better of Jiri Prochazka. Although Jiri had a few good moments in the match, he would have likely lost had the result gone to the judges’ scorecards. He was initially disappointed with his showing but takes some pride in the heart he showed in the fight.
“Even in the direct aftermath of talking to him inside the cage in Singapore in the octagon, he was disappointed – literally 30 seconds after winning a world title,” Simpson said. “He wasn’t happy with the performance. I think when it really sunk in, he was really proud of himself. As awesome of a fight it was and as much of the heart he showed, he doesn’t want to fight like that. He wants to be clean.”
