UFC welterweight Belal Muhammad has been in the headlines ever since he defeated Stephen Thompson last December. He has been quite vocal on social media as well. Some weeks back, ‘Remember The Name’ appeared on TheDeenShowTV and took a jibe at UFC star Conor McGregor while comparing him to his old rival Khabib Nurmagomedov.

In the interview, Muhammad said, “That’s a champion. That’s a real champion. And he’s still humble and still not changing like Conor McGregor. Where Conor McGregor got his money now and he’s becoming that villain now.”

“He doesn’t care what people think of him. Or he has that attitude like I’m gonna do me no matter what. I don’t care if I have kids looking up to me. I don’t care if I just had a kid.”

“I don’t care about any of that now. I am still the moneymaker, and I’m still gonna be the businessman that I want to be. Khabib is more of a Muslim before a businessman.”

The Irishman has had many altercations outside the octagon. Also, the UFC’s pay-per-view star is currently going through a rough phase in his MMA career. He has only won one fight since 2018 and suffered a gruesome injury in his last bout.

Conor McGregor might return soon

‘The Notorious’ clashed against his old rival Dustin Poirier in a much-awaited rematch at UFC 257. He suffered a devastating second-round knockout loss.

Later, the lightweight combatants met for the third time in their careers in what was one of the biggest trilogy fights in the sport’s history. McGregor suffered a gruesome injury in this outing at UFC 264.
