Champ-champ status is about the only thing Kamaru Usman hasn't accomplished in the UFC, and that may not be the case for long ... if the former welterweight king has his way!

The Nigerian Nightmare -- who ruled the 170 lb. division for years -- is moving up to middleweight for a scrap with fellow former champ, Dricus Du Plessis, at UFC Fight Night in Oklahoma City ... and Usman chopped it up with Babcock before the bout, and opened up about the prospects of fighting for the title, with a win.

"'It's a big guy. It's a big name. And that's kind of what I want. I understand that at this stage, it's a blessing for one, just to be able to compete and entertain the masses, but also to be in a position to still potentially get gold again," Usman told us.

What a week ... we've all got diarrhea on the brain, Mitch McConnell's condition remains a mystery, R. Kelly asks President Trump to do him a major solid, and Ariana Grande spins the block with Ricky! So, we gotta ask ...
