Beral Muhammad feels violent.
It removed almost a year from his impressive title-winning performance against Manchester’s Leon Edwards. “Remember the Name” will return to the Octagon at UFC 315 this Saturday night.
“I was dying. I was waiting for the defense of my first title. I’m finally here,” Muhammad said at the UFC 315 press conference. “We’re just a few days away and you’re trying to see the biggest MMA performance you’ve ever seen.”
Muhammad’s first fight as UFC champion has been around for a long time, with people from Chicago ready to soften the in-vale attacks at the Great White North.
“He’ll need a ref to save him on the Saturday night when I broke him,” Muhammad added. “He’ll need a Ref to pull me away from him. That’s something he needs to save.”
It’s a pretty tough story for guys with a mere 20% finish rate within the Octagon, but 514 might see a more violent version of “Bully B.”
Will Belal Muhammad snap a streak of unbeaten wins near JDM?
Wanting to shorten Muhammad’s title reign, Madrena walked to the opportunity of his first UFC Championship Championship with 17 consecutive wins.
The victory of several closely contested division decisions over Bassil Hafez and Kevin Holland appeared to have stopped the JDM title quest at the time, but he quickly subdued allegations that he was not ready for the spotlight in Gilbert Burns’ brutal beatdown at UFC 299 in March.
