Belal Muhammad didn’t have to wait until UFC 304, or even the first faceoff of fight week, to size up Leon Edwards. That already happened.
Speaking with MMA Junkie Radio on Tuesday, Muhammad detailed what happened earlier in the day during a chance elevator run-in with Edwards, brother Fabian Edwards, coach Dave Lovell, and about “six or seven guys” total from Team Edwards.
“I just saw him right now in the elevator. He looked like he was afraid,” said Muhammad, adding that he was only with one other person. “Him and his brother and his coach, they all looked like cowards. His coach was trying to talk a little bit of trash, so I’m hoping that his coach is at the press conference, because I know Leon’s not gonna be able to talk.”
