Belal Muhammad Becomes The New UFC Welterweight Champion
4 months agoFollowing a dominant performance at UFC 304, Belal Muhammad secured a unanimous decision win over the now-former welterweight champion Leon Edwards. The fight was a rematch of their first fight, which ended after an accidental eye poke. It wasn't the most exciting fight but it worked nonetheless for Muhammad, as he took Edwards down on nine times. In 25 minutes, Muhammad landed 68 significant strikes. With Edwards not being offered an immediate rematch, Shavkat Rakhmonov just might be the next in line for a chance at the welterweight belt.
