Belal Muhammad is willing to fight one more time before he gets a UFC welterweight title shot – under one condition.
Muhammad (23-3 MMA, 14-3 UFC) cemented himself as No. 1 contender when he defeated Gilbert Burns at UFC 288 in May. However, he was leapfrogged by Colby Covington, who will challenge welterweight champion Leon Edwards in the UFC 296 headliner on Dec. 16.
UFC CEO Dana White hinted that Muhammad has a fight booked, but Muhammad clarified that he’d only compete if a certain condition is met.
