Dana White Expresses Interest in Usman Nurmagomedov After PFL Victory

Dana White, the president of UFC, expressed clear interest in Usman Nurmagomedov after the fighter's impressive knockout of Archie Colgan at a PFL event in New York on Friday night.

During a post-fight press conference, White responded positively when asked about the possibility of signing Nurmagomedov, who concluded his PFL contract with a first-round stoppage of Colgan, who had been unbeaten prior to this match.

Nurmagomedov's cousin, Khabib, praised him on Instagram, claiming he is the best lightweight globally and indicated that negotiations for a potential UFC contract would start next month. Additionally, Jake Paul engaged in a public discussion with Nurmagomedov about his future after the fight, highlighting the fighter's previous experience in Bellator before the PFL acquisition.
