Towards the unprecedented title fight in his career in Ultimate, Belal Muhammad | expresses nothing but confidence for revenge against Leon edwards at UFC 304, this Saturday (27). When commenting on his rival's skills, the Palestinian highlighted the athlete's difficulty in maintaining high performance during the confrontation and recalled the Englishman's last appearance in the Octagon.
“He literally threw 60 blows against Colby and passed out in the fifth round. I'm looking at this guy, like, you're a dominant striker, this guy disrespected your family, your father, and you still went there and only threw 60 strikes against a guy with a slow kickboxing guy. It's hilarious that they call this guy a sniper, assassin, this and that. But when I look at their fights, when I look at their confrontations, I don’t see anything that I can’t overcome,” Belal said in an interview with Weight In.
