Ali Abdel-Aziz, manager Belal Muhammad, is confident that his ward will be able to fight for the UFC champion title
“Dana is in charge here, I take him at his word. He promised a title shot for Belal, so now I can sleep soundly. Dana always keeps her word. Belal is now contender No. 1. I have a prediction. I think something unexpected will happen, and Belal will fight for the belt on December 16th. I believe he will become a champion. The winner of the Covington-Edwards fight will definitely meet with Belal; there is no point in other fights for him,” the functionary said.
Let us remind you that on December 16, the current UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards will fight with challenger Colby Covington. Their fight will take place at UFC 296.
