Undisputed welterweight champion, Belal Muhammad has upped the ante on his rivalry with current middleweight contender, Sean Strickland — claiming he would love nothing better for the incoming UFC 312 headliner to never “wake up” again if he gets stopped with strikes.
Muhammad, the current undisputed welterweight champion, has been sidelined since winning the divisional crown at UFC 304 last summer in a trip to hostile territory in Manchester.
And landing the title with a shutout decision win over two-fight rival, Leon Edwards in the headliner of the promotion’s return to the UK, Muhammad was slated to feature last month at UFC 310, in a grudge fight with the unbeaten, Shavkat Rakhmonov.
