Video: Belal Muhammad Reacts to Conor McGregor's Tweet, Says He'd Embarrass UFC Star

Former two-time UFC Champion Conor McGregor recently took to social media to call out the current Welterweight Champion, Belal Muhammad, following the cancellation of McGregor's fight next summer.

"I'd love to crush my left hook into belal's temple and take down the triple crown," McGregor wrote in a now deleted post that was obtained by TMZ Sports. "I'd do it easily. And fast! I'd cave his skully heavy! The hurdles I face getting back to the octagon are just harrowing."

McGregor continued the post saying that Muhammad is "The UFC's most abysmal zero revenue generating fighter in modern history."

In response to the post, Muhammad spoke to TMZ Sports (2:50 mark) and shared his thoughts on the current state of the 36-year-old Irish fighter.

"(Conor's) not going to come back. And, if he does come back, I don't think he's ever going to beat anybody," Muhammad told TMZ. "He's that old guy that's at the bar. 'I used to be a champion. I used to be double champ, blah, blah, blah.'"

Muhammad defeated Leon Edwards in July with a unanimous decision victory, capturing the welterweight title from the former champion and improving his professional record to 24-3.

With the title around his waist, Muhammad dug in his heels even further as he discussed the former champion McGregor who last fought in 2021 where he lost via TKO against Dustin Poirier in the first round.

"I would literally slap him around the cage," Muhammad continued. "It would literally be embarrassing to the point of people would be like, 'No way, this guy was a double champion before? How is this guy even a fighter?' The game's passed him up."

Muhammad will put his title on the line on Dec. 7 as he faces 18-0 Shavkat Rakhmonov at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
