UFC welterweight fighter Belal Muhammad clapped back at Conor McGregor’s reaction on a post that chaffed at Muhammad’s fighting style
Belal Muhammad was subject to some criticism from part of the MMA community following his victory against Vicente Luque at UFC Vegas 51, stating that Muhammad made the fight boring with his wrestling heavy approach. In his previous fights, Muhammad scored a similar victory via decision, although he had tremendous back control statistics. Fans criticized Belal for not having a killer approach and going for the finish.
A fan page on Twitter posted a tweet highlighting the style of different MMA legends and closing it out by sarcastically poking fun at Muhammad. The post read, ‘ If you want dominance, look at Silva. If you want power, look at Ngannou. If you want wrestling, look at Khabib. If you want fight IQ, look at St. Pierre. If you want striking, look at McGregor. If you want speed, look at Aldo. If you none of that, look at Belal Muhammad’
The post was heavily critical of Belal’s lack of killer instinct and X-factor.
Belal Muhammad claps back at Conor Mcgregor’s reaction on the post
Muhammad and McGregor have gone back and forth several times in the past. McGregor once posted a video on his Instagram story where he was hysterically laughing at Muhammad just out of mockery. Muhammad then posted another story of McGregor getting choked out in the octagon at UFC 229.
Belal posted a photoshopped picture of him punching Conor Mcgregor with the caption, ‘ Next time I see Conor at a steakhouse’
Mcgregor reacted to the post with a bunch of laughing emojis, which did not sit well with Muhammad. He responded to Mcgregor’s tweet by reminding him of his loss against Poirier at UFC 264, which led to a horrific injury owing to a checked leg kick. He responded by saying, ‘ If you want checked kicks, look at Dustin’
