Belal Muhammad wins welterweight title after beating Leon Edwards at UFC 304
As a dedicated fan, I couldn’t be more thrilled for Belal Muhammad! He stepped into Leon Edwards’ territory and proved beyond a doubt that he belongs at the top of the welterweight division. With an impressive 9 takedowns under his belt, Muhammad dominated the fight and earned a well-deserved unanimous decision win.
In enemy territory, Belal Muhammad carried out his planned actions as promised to all. He dominated the fight with an impressive display of wrestling skills, securing a total of 9 takedowns, ultimately earning him a unanimous decision victory.
As a gamer, I’ve assembled the strongest squad possible. We analyze our opponents, learn from each battle, and keep improving. I may not have the title yet, but as a world champion hopeful, I know my time is coming. Remember when they chuckled at my claim of having skills comparable to Canelo Alvarez? Well, you’ll soon see.
“I was exhausted after that fight… Bravo to Belal for securing the victory. I’m aiming for another win this year. Hopefully, I can compete in November or December,” Edwards expressed, adding some excitement in the waning moments of the bout by reversing positions and inflicting a nasty nosebleed on Muhammad with a series of strong elbow strikes while on top.
At UFC 304, Edwards and Muhammad brought impressive unbeaten records to the main event. Edwards, holding the UFC welterweight title, boasted a flawless record of 13 wins, while Muhammad had an equally impressive series of 10 victories. Their sole defeat came in their encounter with one another. In this bout, Edwards inadvertently caused Muhammad an eye poke, resulting in Muhammad’s inability to continue and the fight being declared a no-contest.
At UFC fight number 304, Muhammad was aware that this could be his sole opportunity to claim the title if he didn’t win. In his previous five bouts, Muhammad had emerged victorious against Demian Maia, Stephen Thompson, Vicente Luque, Sean Brady, and Gilbert Burns. Seizing the moment, Muhammad is now set to establish his legacy as a champion.
I was ecstatic when Edwards claimed the UFC welterweight crown by stunning Kamaru Usman with a thrilling come-from-behind knockout at UFC 278. Subsequently, I bore witness to his two title defenses. In the first one, Edwards and Usman met again in an enthralling rematch at UFC 286, and Edwards emerged victorious. In his second title defense, held at UFC 296, Edwards made light work of Colby Covington.

The UFC is not expected to arrange an immediate rematch between Edwards and the champion, as Edwards himself was not a long-term title holder. Following his defeat, Edwards acknowledged that he would need to work his way back up to earn another title shot. He expressed a desire to fight again before the year’s end but did not specifically request an immediate rematch.
