Belal Muhammad comments on fighting Sean Brady
Belal Muhammad is taking his upcoming fight with Sean Brady as serious as a championship bout. Muhmmad and Brady are set to lock horns at the co-main event of UFC 280 in October. The event will take place in Abu Dhabi inside the Etihad Arena.
Muhammad is currently on an amazing seven fight win streak and has defeated tough welterweights such as Vicente Luque, Stephen Thompson and Demian Maia. The fighter was previously trying to get a fight with the #3 fighter Khamzat Chimaev via his Twitter account. The Swedish was also interested in the fight however, the UFC didn’t give it the green light. Instead, Chimaev will be fighting Nate Diaz next.
After much consideration, the UFC made the fight between Muhmmad and Brady which was actually a great fight. Brady is one of most promising stars in the division who is currently on a rise. The fighter is undefeated in UFC and has five convincing victories under his belt.
This fight is a very important bout as Muhmmad and Brady are the #5 and #9 fighters of the division and will like to continue their winning streak.
Belal Muhammad comments on fighting Sean Brady
Muhammad recently did an interview with MMA Junkie’s Farah Hannoun in which the fighter talked about his upcoming challange and his mindset going into the fight.
Muhammad revealed that he never takes his opponents lightly even if they are ranked lower than him. On the contrary, Muhmmad is looking at Brady as his next hard challenge that he will have to tackle. According to the fighter, he always has the mindset of looking at his upcoming fights as title fights. His next fight will always be his biggest challenge of his career and with the Brady fight it is the same. He said:
” I never wanna look down anybody or underestimate anybody so like I’m looking at Sean Brady as the next toughest guy. So for me also I gotta just come with the mindset like, my next fight always my title fight but whether it’s for the title or not my next fights always the biggest fight of my career and I gotta look at Sean Brady like that.”
Muhammad has been very consistent and has shown impressive capabilities inside the octagon. But most of his big wins have come from decisions and this had fans asking him about trying to get finishes. The fighter has previously said that he will get those finishes soon. Hopefully, Muhammad will get one against Brady at UFC 280.
