Usman Nurmagomedov says he's rejected a $2 million contract offer from the PFL as he weighs his future beyond the promotion's exclusive 90-day negotiating window, which began after he finished his current deal with a knockout of Archie Colgan in July.

"Negotiations with the PFL are still ongoing. Ninety days have to pass. After that, we'll see. But I have turned down $2 million. When we made our request for a new contract, the numbers were different — higher than $2 million," Nurmagomedov

The unbeaten 28-year-old remains one of MMA's most in-demand fighters, with a potential UFC move widely speculated, though nothing has been confirmed while his manager continues talks and the PFL's negotiating period plays out.
