Conor blasts Belal
Nobody in the UFC is safe from McGregor’s rants and Muhammad has become his latest victim. In a wild post on X, “Notorious” belittled Muhammad’s resume and charisma as a champion.
Moreover, McGregor let everybody know that he would fancy taking on “Remember The Name” and become a three-weight division champ.
“I’d love to crush my left hook into Belal’s temple and take down the triple crown,” McGregor wrote. “I’d do it easily and fast! I’d cave his skull heavy! The hurdles I face getting back to the octagon are just harrowing. I am so sad over my June 29th fight cancelation. To think this bum is now a UFC champion with zero knockdowns on his resume or whatever is so bad. The UFC’s most abysmal zero revenue generating fight in modern history.”

Conor says he’ll face another fighter in his return
This wasn’t the first time McGregor hit out at Muhammad. Back in September, the former UFC two-division champ already called “Remember the Name” out during a live stream.
However, McGregor also recently revealed that there has been a new update on his long-awaited UFC return. According to “Notorious,” he is set to return on February 1st for a showdown with lightweight contender Dan Hooker in Saudi Arabia.
On the other hand, Muhammad has already been booked for his first title defense. The reigning champ will face Shavkat Rakhmonov at UFC 310 on December 7th.
