Shavkat Rakhmonov Questions Timing of Belal Muhammad’s Withdrawal from UFC 310

Shavkat Rakhmonov has his doubts about the timing of Belal Muhammad’s exit from UFC 310.

Rakhmonov was scheduled to challenge Muhammad for the welterweight title in the main event at UFC 310 on Dec. 7 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. However, Muhammad pulled out of the matchup, citing a bone infection that led to severe swelling in his foot.

Rakhmonov has now questioned the recency of Muhammad’s injury. The undefeated Kazakh believes Muhammad’s injury is older than he advertised, as he claims to have heard of the champ training recently.
