Israel Adesanya has criticised MMA manager Ali Abdelaziz after he suggested Kamaru Usman should fight the middleweight champion.
Abdelaziz suggested welterweight champion Usman, who is managed by Dominance MMA, should defend his belt against Leon Edwards and then move up to fight Adesanya.
Adesanya and Usman, who were both born in Nigeria, are good friends and have ruled out the possibility of fighting each other in the UFC.
