Belal Muhammad built his reputation off pace and dominant wrestling. However, in 2022, “Remember the Name” proved there was more than meets the eye.
Back in October 2022 at UFC 280, Muhammad showcased his striking and KO power in a top contender bout against Sean Brady. Few expected Muhammad to pick up a stoppage on a very tough and skilled Brady, but Muhammad connected a big shot on Brady in Round 2, and put him away. It was Muhammad’s first TKO/KO win in six years.
