Belal Muhammad turned the Titan Fighting Championship 38 headliner into his personal showcase.
The Chicago native overwhelmed former World Series of Fighting titlist Steve Carl to capture the promotion’s vacant welterweight strap on Saturday at the Miccosukee Casino in Miami. “Remember the Name” ended his streak of five consecutive decision victories, as he put a halt to the contest with punches on the ground 4:07 into the fourth round, handing Carl (22-5) just his second defeat in his last 10 outings.
“Everybody was calling me out, saying I can’t finish fights,” Muhammad said.
