During a recent interview with The Schmo, Muhammad claimed to have the best resume in the UFC's welterweight division. 'Remember The Name' also added that he has the perfect style to match Usman and also claimed to be better than the #1 ranked Colby Covington.
"Now I'm gonna fight Luque, a guy that's a knockout artist, a guy that's knocked me out before. So I go out there and dominate this guy, who is on a huge streak right now, I finish him as a main event, there is no other excuses you could give, make for anybody else besides me. I'm gonna have the best resume in the division, the best resume at welterweight and I haven't fought Kamaru Usman before and I had the perfect style to fight Kamaru Usman because as we see with Colby, a guy with wrestling, a guy with cardio, a guy with volume and I have all those things and I'm better than Colby everywhere. So I'm that guy that could beat Kamaru Usman." - said Belal Muhammad.
