'As Africans, we fight for everything we have'
Kamaru Usman, also known as the Nigerian
Nightmare, wants to be the Ultimate Fighting
Championship's longest-reigning champion.

He is king of the welterweight division in
mixed-martial art's most famous and prestigious
championship.

He puts his belt on the line against a friend and
former training partner, Brazilian Gilbert Burns
on February 13.

Though raised in the US, Kamaru was born in
Nigeria, and he told BBC Africa he wants to
represent his country and continent every time he
steps into the octagon.

"That's one thing we know how to do as Africans is
fight, not just physically but fight for anything
that we have, we have to earn," he said.
