Belal Muhammad and Kamaru Usman, both prominent figures in mixed martial arts, recently faced off verbally during a podcast. Initially, tensions arose from Usman's critique of Muhammad's refusal to fight Islam Makhachev, which led to Muhammad disparaging Usman's prior title reign. During their podcast appearance, an argument escalated when Muhammad mocked Usman's knockout loss to Leon Edwards, spurring a heated exchange. The situation became tense enough for fellow podcaster Henry Cejudo to intervene. Currently, Usman is on a losing streak while Muhammad remains undefeated in 11 fights, including a recent title victory against Edwards.
Usman's like, 'I was a champ too.' And [I said], 'Yeah but you're not the champ anymore.' And then he just couldn't let it go.
He was like 'anything you do I do better than you.' And then I was like 'but you didn't take the head kick better than me.' And I think that just triggered him.
He was like 'I don't play these games man, it's on sight when people talk like that.' And I was like, 'We're right in front of each other. On sight?'... Henry Cejudo twisted his ankle, had to break it up.
Muhammad has been unbeaten in 11 straight outings, topped off by his title win against Edwards last year.
