Former UFC champion in two weight classes Henry Cejudo believes that he is a top welterweight Belal Muhammad his style of fighting is very similar to the ex-leader of the lightweight division Khabib Nurmagomedova.

The day before it became known that Muhammad could have a title fight with champion Leon Edwards at the UFC 300 tournament, scheduled for April 13 in Las Vegas.

“So, it just became known that the Muhammad-Edwards fight will be scheduled for UFC 300. It will be an incredibly interesting fight. After the Belal vs. Burns fight, all I can say is that Muhammad is getting better and better.

This is what I will say: he is the fighter who is most similar to Khabib Nurmagomedov. They do the same cross steps. They use the same feint with their front hand to then give their opponent a takedown,” Cejudo said in the latest episode of his YouTube channel.
