Usman is still the champion. The info about his next fight will appear towards the end of the disqualification, so far it's uncertain.
Nurmagomedov's last fight was against Brent Primus in October 2023 at Bellator 300. Usman initially won that fight by unanimous decision, but the result of this fight was canceled after the reports about Nurmagomedov failing a doping test. The California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) suspended Usman from fighting for six months. The Russian has 17 wins and no defeats on his record.
