Former UFC champion Kamaru Usman was in Paris, where he met with Paris Saint-Germain striker Kylian Mbappe.

Mbappe grabbed a brace in PSG’s 2-1 win over Italian giants Juventus scoring both goals in the first half of the highly-entertaining fixture on Tuesday night.

He had been in the news for the wrong reasons but reacted to the scandal involving himself and Paul Pogba.

Juve midfielder Pogba was accused by his elder brother Mathias Pogba of using black magic on Mbappe, both of who are French international teammates and were part of the side that won the FIFA World Cup in 2018.

And Mbappe leapt in the defence of his teammate, and he seems to have moved on as he was pictured smiling with UFC superstar Kamaru Usman.

Usman recently lost all his belts to America’s Leon Edwards following a last-gasp high-kick which sent him to the canvass.

He was looking to win the fight, but Edwards delivered a devastating high kick out of nowhere, which left Usman out cold with referee Herb Dean instantly waving off the fight.

Kamaru Usman unimpressed with Conor McGregor

Meanwhile, UFC heavyweight fighter Kamaru Usman has been left unimpressed after being blasted by Conor McGregor for bringing his daughter to UFC 278, where he lost by KO to Leon Edwards.

McGregor lashed out at the former world champion and mentioned that in a tweet while watching him lose the UFC welterweight title last month.

Usman’s daughter was seated by the cageside as she cried after watching her father suffer a shocking loss, and McGregor was unimpressed.

Anthony Joshua warned not to fight Tyson Fury

Sports Brief earlier reported that boxing journalist Gareth Davies has warned Anthony Joshua not to attempt a fight against WBC heavyweight champion of the world Tyson Fury before the end of the year.

Joshua, who lost his rematch to Ukraine’s Oleksandr Usyk, has accepted Fury’s ‘battle of Britain’ challenge for the WBC title.

Fury shared a clip on social media urging Joshua to consider fighting him in a bid for him to remain in the heavyweight title picture.
