If there’s any takeaways from yesterday’s UFC 310 pay-per-view (PPV) headliner scratch out, it’s that Belal Muhammad vs. Conor McGregor was on nobody’s bingo card. Muhammad and Conor McGregor are at each other’s throats like they fight the horizon. Now, while “Bully Belal” wars with “Conor McJunkie,” the Irishman gives his scathing take on it.

The latest verbal volley between the two came after news broke that Belal Muhammad withdrew against Shavkat Rakhmonov. The Palestinian champ was to make a maiden defense of the welterweight title at the UFC 310 PPV headliner. However. he incurred a bone infection in his foot and pulled out. He even took the war to McGregor when he posted defunct reactions. Now, ‘The Notorious’ replies back brutally.

You lambasted UFC world champions multiple times on having to reschedule their bouts through injury and now it has come down on you like a bomb from the sky. No fight. No money. But staph infection. Bum. Stripped. Instantly. Zero knockdowns/any excitement or traffic or views or ticket sales in bout, and now also non-reliable to show? Strip. Cut. Infected fighter.

The two fighters have rarely exchanged kind words. However, McGregor was particularly motivated after Muhammad appeared to do the same when he pulled out of the UFC 303 PPV last June. Muhammad’s response to Conor McGregor’s emoticons was to accuse him of nose blows. Often known to cross the line, thus came the ‘Mac’ attack. Check it down below:

McGregor’s “bomb” line is a particularly odious one. Given Mohammed’s Palestinian heritage and the genocide in Gaza at the hands of the Israeli military forces. In another defunct tweet, McGregor also steamrolled with an invective-filled rant to strip him. While these two bicker it out, another new blood with close ties was putting in his name for UFC 310.

Joaquin Buckley makes case for Shavkat Rakhmonov fight at UFC 310

Joaquin Buckley has never been one to hold his tongue, and he’s making sure his name is out there in the mix. Buckley is a big dreamer who didn’t falter at even calling out big consensus superstar Conor McGregor. This was during the June pay-per-view (PPV) return phase when he was to seemingly make a 5-round welterweight comeback.

Of course, Buckley now faces McGregor’s compatriot and welterweight Ian Garry for UFC on ESPN 63 in Tampa. But when it wasn’t official, it didn’t stop ‘New Mansa’ from pitching in his name. Garry has been a popular name in the conversation. However, Buckley (20-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC) believed he made a solid case for inclusion in the potential UFC 310 fight.

Hey look, I’ma let you finish, but I got something to say, …Nobody want to see that fight. People want to see knockouts. People want to see finishes, and that’s exactly what we finna bring. Me vs. Shavkat. He got 18 finishes, 10 subs, eight knockouts. And your boy, I got 14 knockouts, and I just knocked out my last two ranked opponents.

Buckley, tagging himself a Team Kill Cliff FC killer, respected Belal Muhammad’s pay-per-view (PPV) billing at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. He even expected Rakhmonov to be exposed sooner or later at UFC 310. However, with old crops out or bickering, it did not stop him from putting his name in.

Buckley is currently on a five-fight winning streak and is undefeated since his move to the welterweight division last May. In his last outing at UFC 307, ‘New Mansa’ knocked out former title challenger Stephen Thompson. He now moves on with Garry and UFC Tampa, but a win over him might just hoist him to title talks or at the very least a backup role.
