Belal Muhammad criticizes Conor McGregor’s UFC return: ‘Doesn’t look good in life right now’

Newly-minted undisputed welterweight champion, Belal Muhammad is unsure whether a return to fighting is a good idea for former two-division UFC titleholder, Conor McGregor — claiming the veteran striker “doesn’t look good” in his life at the moment.

Muhammad, the current undisputed welterweight gold holder, most recently headlined UFC 304 at the end of July in Manchester, England — turning in a dominant unanimous decision win over two-time opponent, Leon Edwards, snatching the divisional crown to boot.
